glucometer reading shows 103 my dl after 16 hours of meal am I prediabetic
hi from the above history it is noted that you are having a strong family history of diabetes and also you have been noted with prediabetic range blood sugars in the past coming to your query it is ideal to have less than 100mg dl blood sugars after 12 16 hours post meal but we cannot label you as prediabetic or diabetic by noting a single value so I would take it as a prediabetic state if you have been noted with increased blood sugars in this range on multiple occasions or if three months average blood sugars are between 6 I would like to stress the point that from the data it is found that you are having class obesity which must be addressed with due importance because it can lead to early diabetes any lifestyle disease and sleep apnea too hba1c glycated hemoglobin lifestyle modification diabetic diet regular aerobic exercises 45 minutes daily
