Answers:
What Are Normal Blood Glucose And Blood Sugar Levels

There are various methods to determine blood glucose level!. Some tests give you accurate diagnosis of diabetes or pre-diabetes, while others will tell you how well you are managing your diabetes!.

Fasting Blood Sugar Test:
Measures the blood sugar level after 8 hours fast or overnight!. Normal fasting blood glucose level is less than 100mg/dl!. If your fasting blood glucose level is from 100mg/dl to 125mg/dl then you will have impaired blood glucose level also known as Pre-Diabetes!. If your blood glucose level is above 125mg/dl then your doctor will diagnose as a patient of diabetes!. To confirm the diagnosis, your doctor may repeat the fasting blood glucose test on any other day!. If you have blood glucose level of 126mg/dl or higher in two consecutive tests, then you may have diabetes!. If you have blood glucose level greater than 200mg/dl and you have symptoms of diabetes like increased thirst or hunger, frequent urination, weight loss, blurred vision etc, then you may be diagnosed with diabetes mellitus without confirming it with second test!.
