Glucose Range Shows 122 Reference Range. Does It Mean I Am Diabetic?
Question: Hi Doctor. .my glucose range shows 122 reference range..fasting blood results. . does it mean that I am having diabetic ?
Brief Answer:
NO
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
A fasting blood glucose test of 122 is well within normal limit. It is said to be in diabetic range when it crosses over 126mg/dl.
Also, to diagnose a person with Diabetes, we need to do other tests like PPBS, glycoyslated hemoglobin, and glucose tolerance test.
I would suggest you to do all these tests before I comment further on your diabetes state.
Thank you!
