About normal blood sugar levels?
Okay, I just learned to use this glucose reader that a drug rep gave me. I did a test to make sure I am using it correctly. My number is 129. I ate dinner about 2 1/2 hours ago.
Is this a normal number? I cannot find anywhere on the directions to this thing what a normal number is.
I will not eat/drink tonight and will do this again in the morning. What “should” normal numbers be then?

dont worry, you dont have to not eat or drink, that wont really make much of a difference, depending on how soon you test after you eat/drink. the normal should be between 80 and 150. it goes higher as you eat/drink, and lower as you work out, etc. good luck!
Your numbers are great. You want to look for numbers between 70-110 but even in the 120′s is not bad.
Normal blood sugar levels are between 80 and 120, so yours is a little elevated, but not enough to be overly concerned about.
normal level is 80-120 mg/l
a fasting blood sugar taken after 12 hours of no eating should be under 100.
Two hours after eating it can be anywhere between 150 and 250, depending on what you ate. 123 two hours after eating is not something to worry about.
More worrisome is a blood sugar that is too low. It should never go below 70. If it does, eat something sweet quick and follow it up with a trip to the doctor.
129 is great! I envy you! I get readings of 225 to 250.
Hi
Don’t worry you don’t have diabetes. Its a normal value.
I’m assuming you are not diabetic. Normal BSL range for a non diabetic is 35-110 and for a diabetic they are 35-80. It is certainly a tight range, easily achieved. BSLs should be checked just BEFORE a meal – not afterwards, otherwise they are quite inaccurate. Have a normal dinner tonight, then recheck you BSL in the morning before breakfast. If it is above 110, then pay your local doctor a visit. If it is normal, congratulations,put the BSL reader away for 6 months. Best of luck.
normal readings are 100 or below to 70 when its over 100 you are diabetic and even if they tell you borderline its still the same. you need to get dieting and watch what you eat and read your blood sugars 4 x day.
