Don't play with diabetes !.You need to go to the doctor to be tested!. Before it to later!. Look out for your health!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your numbers don't look that bad to me, that said I'm not a doctor and if you are truly concerned then a doctor would be the best person to ask!. The doctor can do a A1C test by taking a sample of your blood and have the results in a few days, this will give your blood glucose level over a 90 day period or so!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your blood sugar values indicate that you do not have diabetes mellitus!.

To diagnose diabetes mellitus you need to have;
a fasting plasma glucose level of more than 126mg/dl or a random glucose level of more than 200mg/dl!.

Since your blood sugar values are well below these levels you do not have diabetes mellitus at this moment in time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

hi you
they all look fine to me but in saying you never said what type of diabetes your mom has and how long she has it this mite have a big bearing on it due to the fact diabetes runs in families what this means for you is your a higher risk group of getting then if it did not run in your family and to add to this point my aunt had diabetes and her 4 kids dont so even doe your in that high risk group it could still skip you but getting tested i know i would just to be on the safe sideWww@Answer-Health@Com

it is important for each person to take care of his/her body!. so you have to check you blood chemistry once in a while to make it sure that you have a chemical balance in your body!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'll be honest - I don't know the correlation between precise glucose readings and diabetes; however, I would highly recommend getting tested - if you even think that being diabetic is a possibility!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
