It means you have diabetic blood glucose levels

http://www.diabetes.co.uk/oral-glucose-tolerance-test.html

What should the OGTT results be?
People without diabetes
  • Fasting value (before test): under 6 mmol/L
  • At 2 hours: under 7.8 mmol/L
People with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT)
  • Fasting value (before test): 6.0 to 7.0 mmol/L
  • At 2 hours: 7.9 to 11.0 mmol/L
Diabetic levels
  • Fasting value (before test): over 7.0 mmol/L
  • At 2 hours: over 11.0 mmol/L

That is a high spike from your fasting level.
What was your hba1c levels?
Have you been higher than the test readings?
What meds have you been given?
Have you had dietary advice?

I did it myself at home

I have had pregnancy diabetes three times and my dad ,brother and husband are type two.

Out of curiosity really I checked my fast bloods when my husband did and was getting reading of 6.7, 6.8 and 7.1.

So then was worried and checked before and two hours after meals and was getting 8:3 ,9s and 10.1

My dad and brother are telling me I should see a doctor. But then saw a post on here about the ogtt. So I carried that out at home. Don't know if I should be worried or not
 
Don't be worried, but please book an appointment with a doctor as soon as possible and get proper lab tests.

Home meters are not that accurate and it is not useful trying to diagnose yourself.

You can see my hospital OGTT test in my signature.

As we can't diagnose you because of your history, it is better to seek medical advice.
They can do tests to confirm diagnosis or not.
The hba1c test is the one doctors use and you should have blood tests to see what is going on.
However, normal non diabetic patients can get similar results from glucometer s.
