Yes that is: something to worry about. That is a significantly elevated fasting blood sugar level. I strongly encourage you to see you doctor for a comprehensive medical evaluation. I would encourage you to stop smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol. Your doctor can arrange for you to see a nutritionist to assist you with developing healthy eating habits. Take care.
