I was happy that my Fasting and Post meal sugar levels were normal but a bit worried that they were same as PP sugar is expected to be higher. But evening when Hb1C result came - I was shocked.

Your glucose [blood sugar] levels are higher than normal but not that high to cause gastrointestinal problems. I feel your issue is beyond the expertise of your current doctor. I suggest you see a Gastroenterologist, a doctor who trained and specializes in the digestive system and its disorders. Blood draws and possibly a scan is in order. Lastly, do not take anything unknown to you that may increase your discomfort further than it is. Good luck.

By eating at night you may be able to help your morning blood sugar be a bit lower. When you have extended fasting your liver can put out glucose. By eating a small snack you may be able to prevent your liver doing this. hope this helps. Please come back and let us know how you're going.
Often diabetes in preganncy will get worse as the pregnancy progresses (insulin resistance increases as the pregnancy progresses and the placenta grows).
It really depends if u need insulin or pills, if you cant control your blood sugar then you take pills if your blood sugar is not high. But if normally your fasting numbers are high then thats why they put you on insulin. I have a coworker that went straight to insulin and shes a diabetic now but her numbers were crazy high like in the 500 when she did the glucose test. The doc just prob know that pills wont help you.
Fasting is your background blood sugar level. This level is important as it is your starting point for average blood sugars and hba1c.
So yes, if a certain amount of carb raises your blood sugar by say 30 points. If you start at 80 and rise by 30 you are 110 and still within "safe and normal range". But if you start at 110 and rise by 30 you are at 140, which is already higher than is typically ideal.
My doctor did a PP blood Test just 20 minutes after my having morning Breakfast of Cornflakes and Milk. Reading showed 234...He concluded My sugar level is high. I thought PP Test shoudl be done 2 hours post meal. Pl clarify as I get multiple views on the same. You can also clarify on what the ideal test range should be. Look forward to your clear response which will clear my doubt that I have.
I am a type II diabetic and I would like to know what is considered a "good" blood sugar reading for me when I test at different times of the day....before meals, after meals, fasting in the morning, at bedtime and other random times during the day.
m looking for information on what levels of blood sugar typically result in glycation. I have not seen my blood sugar go over 127, and I'm wondering what level I should be keeping it under in order to lower my Hgba1c. If it is becoming elevated to the 90's overnight is that causing glycation? Should I be looking for spikes that occur within an hour of eating?
Actually, if you want to have 'excellent' blood sugar control that is as close to normal as possibel 142 is not acceptable.
Considering that people without diabetes will rarely have readings higher than 100 ever.
To avoid complications the best plan is to keep blood sugars as close to truely normal as possible. This will prevent complications.
Your 142 is a wakeup call.
