hi
I did my blood glucose 2 hours after eating and it was 9.9 then again at 3.5 hours and it was 10.1. I thought after 2 hours it should start to come down.

My fasting test was 8.5 one test and second 6.4. I was advised to watch what i eat however 8 months ago i had normal fasting. Then i did atkins for 4 months. So why are my bloods so haywire?.

Thanks
 
Are you type 1 or 2? Glucose levels depends on my different factors such as GI, protein or fat intake. If i eat something fatty my sugars after 2 h can be ok and later they go up. What did you eat when you had 9.9 and then 10.1?
 
Hi
I was just told to watch my weight no firm diagnosis as yet. I had a dinner consisting of breaded fish with sliced potato and peas. Not to fatty i dont think. The reason i tested my blood was my dad has t2 and i used a urinalysis diastix which changed colour so he told me to test my blood
 
Do doctors still rely on oral glucose tests? This would possibly be the next step. My previous fasting blood 6 months ago was 5.8
