Do you think i should see a doctor for my blood glucose readings?

Maybe: I suspect you're a diabetic that must monitor your blood glucose. Aren't you doing this on your own at home? You should have a glucometer which measures the blood glucose with a tiny drop of blood. I'm uncertain why you'd need to see your doctor unless you're having h1ac blood tests done, which measures blood glucose averages over months.
