Hello. I'm a 57 year old man. I have some health issues and recently ( past year) I've noticed that I keep getting instant sweats on my face and neck. giddiness and I've noticed that I couldn't focus in the morning, which has got worse and has started to last longer. Often get the shakes after eating plus other symptoms. So I ordered a blood glucose level tester. It came today and I've done various tests. Bothis morning and this evening it has tested 10.9. Is this too high and does it mean I need more or less sugar? Wjat do I do?
 
Yes @Lashurst , your BG numbers are too high.

But are you sure you are testing your blood correctly, washing your hands with ordinary soap (no alcohol content) beforehand?

Go see your doc with this and get proper blood tests done.
