A member asked:

10 hour fast blood sugar 100, 12 hour fast 90,post prad 1.5 hour 130, usally reach 85 level 6 hour after meal, why 10 hour fast high then 12 hour norm

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Glucose values: I would not obsess over fasting glucose of 90 vs 100. The 2 hr difference in length of fast is not very important. If the glu is less than 140 at 2 hr after 75 g of glucose intake, that is normal. Overall, you seem to have normal glucose values. If you are at risk for diabetes, a Hgb A1C may be a better test to follow.
