Hi I do not have diabetes I am monitoring my blood sugar what should the numbers be in the morning after I get up and what should my numbers be after I eat a meal. And what would be the number when I go to bed? I do not have heart disease I m trying to control my blood sugar so I will not have or get heart disease.
When you get up, the blood sugar level should be between 70 mg to 100 mg per deciliter. After eating a meal upper limit is 180 mg/DL. Two hours or more after eating, ideally it should be below 140 mg/DL. At bedtime it should be between 70 mg to 180 mg/DL.
