| Somewhere here I had copied something off the net which says this;
Glucose Levels;
Pre diabetic; 100 to 125 fasting.
2 hours after eating 70 to 145
random 70 to 125
I think I saw another site though where they said that up to 200 after a meal might be pre diabetic and over it would indicate type II? No expert here, just something I have on a card file.
My take is that the word Pre is designed to get your attention before things really get worse and attempt to stave off any much higher numbers for as long as possible, thus reducing the risk of complications. Many think it means your going to eventually end up type II if your current numbers indicate a problem approaching. Some sites again however say that some people who make changes can possibly avoid becoming type II though diet and exercise and some with meds. Everything I read says the diet and exercise is the most beneficial but at some point if it does keep increasing you may need the medical help. |
