Hello,
I'm currently wearing a libre 2 because I've been diagnosed with reactive hypoglycemia (blood sugar dipped down to 2.6 during a glucose tolerance test) but it didn't go high so I didn't get any pre/diabetes warning from my endocrinologist.
I self funded a one off Libre 2 to try and figure out my hypoglycemia triggers but yesterday my blood sugars went up to 9.8 when I tested randomly. Had been grazing for a lot of the day.
On this website is says - for a non diabetic: 7.8 is the maximum blood sugar "at least 90 minutes after meals". Does that mean it can go more than 7.8 before the 90 minutes or does it mean 7.8 should be the maximum blood sugar full stop?
My family has a lot of type 2 diabetes so I need to be careful. But the glucose tolerance test showed that I was well within range with a max of 6.2. So if my Libra is accurate at 9.8 then I'm not sure what to do.
So basically my question is: is 7.8 the max for a non-diabetic or can it be higher (e.g. 9.8) as long as it's 7.8 or less at 90+ mins after a meal?
Thank you so much.
