That's too high. Normal is between 70 - 110 fasting and not over 140 after a meal. Here's a web page that explains the various stages of diabetes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose_tol...

Not so high you need to panic but there is something to see doc about. If you've caught it early enough you may be able to correct with diet and exercise.

If you wait - permanent damage. See your doc soonest.

If this was afteryou got up and fasted all nite , you are diabetic. Now One good piece of news, if you have been diabetic for less than a year and you get your blood sugar level to normal, you may postpone or it may not come back at all.. One bad think thats not in your favor is family history of diabetes. Good luck Precious. I would not wish Diabetes on my worst enemy.It affect you physically and mentally
