I m 58 yrs old. My fasting sugar remains at 70 while PP moves to 160 level. Is it ok?

Ans: If PP is disproportionate then you need to check blood sugar at five different timings. Before breakfast, after Breakfast, after lunch, before dinner and after dinner. You need to see these five reading and then you can understand the regulation of blood sugar

Checked my sugar level few days back and it was Fasting 93 and PP 141. My age is 49 years male. Is it very alarming and what precautions should I take?

Ans: You may do HbA1c tests also. PP 141 is just in the range for impaired glucose tolerance. Appropriate diet, daily exercise/ walking and weight reduction if needed- this should be the plan.

Dr. my Glucose Fasting is 115.10 & Glucose post meal is 149.60 is it Ok..

Ans: Blood sugar fasting levels of 115 md/dl and PP of 149 md/dl are indicative of pre-diabetes. You need to confirm this by doing an HbA1c test to check average blood sugar levels. Maintain a healthy lifestyle by dietary modifications like including high fiber, low fat, low carbohydrate foods. Consume foods like whole grains, vegetables, beans. nuts, etc. Avoid concentrated foods like sweets, chocolate cakes, pastries, ice creams and fried foods. Adopt a regular exercise regimen.

I m 58 yrs old. My fasting sugar remains at 70 while PP moves to 170 level. Is it ok?

Ans: Normal PP levels should be below 140 mg/dl 2 hours after a meal. The rise in post-meal blood sugar could be due to various factors, such as the type of food consumed, insulin resistance, or other health conditions. Consult your family physician to discuss these readings and any symptoms you may be experiencing. Lifestyle modifications (diet, exercise) and potential medication adjustments may be necessary.
