Onset of diabetes? Can this be prevented my blood glucose levels?!


Question: were at 7 this was without fasting. Two stones over weight though I do exercise. I'm just terrified of becoming a diabetic. And is it always the case that losing weight is a symptom of diabetes or not necessarily the case

6.4 is the ideal level, so 7.0 is a not bad at all. Signs of the onset of diabetes are drinking lots, needing to use the toilet more often than usual and feeling lethargic .Losing weight is not neccesarily a sign of diabetes.If you are worried about becoming a diabetic, keep an eye on your blood sugar and also get your GP to check for Ketones in your water.
Anne you are wrong kids gret type 1 diabetes not two and I said I was not fasting you did not read the question properly sorry. I no you meant no harm but someone else could have been quite upset by your reply. Report It

    First of all, don't be terrified. It's easy to control through knowledge. I'm managed to get off the medication completely and live a near normal life just through good nutrition and daily exercise (walking). Visit my diabetes info page for more:

    5.5-6.5 is normal so fasting blood glucose of 7 is worrying. Weight loss is a sign of type 2 diabetes that kids get. You could get type 2 diabetes. You need to lose weight and cut out suger and catch this early
