What exactly does it mean when your blood sugar level is 123?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends upon: Many factors: lab or finger stick; when it what drawn, in whom, how long after a meal or fasting, etc. If it's a lab fasting, you have prediabetes. If you're overweight, it doesn't really matter what you call it, what matters is that you're Insulin resistant and prone to developing diabetes in the future. Start prevention now w/education diet, exercise, weight loss. See your doc.
