Common Questions and Answers about Diabetes blood test results
diabetes
If you had a fasting blood sugar of 116 that is high for a non-diabetic; if you had eaten within two hours before the test then 116 would not be cause for concern. Regardless, you should take the medications the doctor prescribed as indicated because you don't want your sugar level to creep higher. While you are doing that, though, you can absolutely exercise and change your diet and try to lose that weight.
Every year I go for routine check up and i am a little confused with my blood sugar test results. I have been monitoring my results since 2007. back in 2007 normal range in Canada was 3.6-6.0. Since then it has changed to 3.6-5.5
my results in the last few years have been as follows:
2007 : fasting 5.8 A1C 5.6
2008 : fasting 5.4 A1C 5.7
2009 : fasting 5.2 A1C 5.9 (at home on meter 4.7)
2010 : fasting 5.2 A1C 5.7
2011 : fasting 5.2 A1C 5.7
2012 : fasting 5.9 A1C 5.5
2013 : fasting 5.

If you provide further details on your consultation with your doctor it would help narrow down what you need to do next. Under normal circumstances doctors do not "mentioned like i am having diabetes." unless he/she has test results to back up their statement. Please answer the following questions in detail:
1.) Did you or did you not undertake a glucose [blood sugar] tolerance test?
1b.) A fasting glucose test?
1c.) An A1c test?
I looked on the American Diabetes website and there is an OGTT test- is that the test--meaning oral glucose tolerance test. This is what they say about those results. OGTT test, a person's blood glucose level is measured after a fast and two hours after drinking a glucose-rich beverage. If the two-hour blood glucose level is between 140 and 199 mg/dl, the person tested has pre-diabetes. If the two-hour blood glucose level is at 200 mg/dl or higher, the person tested has diabetes.
I would do two things; first, fasting test with another meter and with yours at the same time to see if yours is out of calibration; two, I would get an A1c test to verify normal glucose level. If the A1c results are normal, don't fret anymore.
I was admitted to the hospital on May18 with a blood sugar level of over 500. On June 4 rd my A1C test results came back at 12.1. I immediately took action to maintain healty blood sugar. On Aug 6 (63 days later) my A1C tested at 5.9. I have also lost 25 pounds since my release from the hospital. Maintaining proper carb input levels (I believe) is the cause of the weight loss. Good Luck.
just got results of my blood glucose test and it was 7 which nurse said for me that was fine and now have neuropathy in my feet but circulation ok which is good.
doctor phoned now and asked me to come in as there is an issue with blood check. nurse sort of said something about cholestel and low iron but I have just had a B12 injection.
You got an HSV test but it wasn't "type specific." Meaning you got tested for HSV antibodies in general. You have to get the "HSV Type Specific Test" which costs a bit more (but not too bad). This will tell you if you have HSV 1 or HSV 2. You can have either virus in either location (oral or genital).
