Hi
I'm new to this. Recently been told I'm pre-diabetic.
I have been cecking my glucose levels in the morning, before lunch and 90min after.
My glucose is between 4.4 and 5.2 before and 90min after lunch but for some reason it's between 5.8 and 6.2 when fasting. When I eat cereals it's the Nestlé shreded wheat wich is low in sugar with skinny milk but mostly it's soup (no potatoes) or salads.
Anyone has any idea why?
How can we help, @Flic2019 ? What is going on? I think we have all felt despair at one time or another. Don’t give up.12.9
Don’t even want to test anymore. Just don’t

Welcome to the forum @Lizzie34. Morning fasting blood glucose levels can often be higher due to 'Dawn Phemomenon' where the liver dumps stored glucose into the blood stream as we wake to get us going for the day.Hi
