Hi everyone new to this, I have not been told I'm diabetic just borderline. Lately I have been having diabetic symptoms dizziness, terrible fatigue, blurred vision, thirst, back pains. My mom tested my sugar levels using accru check aviva and fasting it was 11.2 is that to high, last month it was normal 5.9 so do I really need to see a doctor if my body is regulating it but the dizzness, blurred vision and extreme fatigue is getting to me now. Would medication help with this symptoms if it is diabetese. Thank you Lindsey.

Hi @LindseyJackson

Make sure you wash your hands with plain soap before testing. If your readings are still high at around 1-1/2hrs after eating then get yourself back to the doctor's surgery.

Please read this page, it will give you an idea of where your blood glucose levels should be.

My best advice would be to book an appointment to see your GP, they can run blood tests and then diagnosis. If you are diabetic you can then find lots of help and advice here! Your symptons sounds very similar to diabetes but I'd suggested you go get yourself checked out.

Best of luck
