A member asked:

My blood sugar typically tends to hover around 105 between meals (sometimes it's lower). is that cause for concern? enough to deem me "pre-diabetic"?

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Fasting blood sugars: We look at fasting blood sugars, not post-prandial sugars. That doesn't sound particularly concerning.
