Hi guys I’ve been feeling unwell for a while now
Always tired really tired thirsty hungry achy ..
I was at work today feeling unwell sweaty dizzy and feeling generally strange so did a blood sugar reading and was 8.7 at 11am
Then did one at 3pm 8.5. Then again at 7 pm 7.9 still feeling strange
Should this be a worry and should I keep testing and take to my doctor I’m not entirely sure what the safe ranges are ?
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks.
 
Welcome to the forums. The numbers you quote are within acceptable range. According to my meter, up to 10.0 is fine. Being ill or fighting a bug does put blood sugar up for many. Your symptoms could be the common flu. Asking your doctor may put your mind at rest.
