What Do These Blood Glucose Readings Indicate?
I m on janumet XR 100/1000. My average blood glucose is 160, I have times during the day do or over 200 as high as 270 and its levels out to about 130-150. My morning fast always test at 140-150. I don t eat fast food, small amounts of carbs, lots of vegetables frozen and fresh, raw nuts, very little red meat, I smoke 1/2 pack a day and I don t drink and I walk nightly 1-1/2 miles with a 40lb weight traing vest. Do I need to worry about these readings? Like a opinion before I go back to my doctor.

In short: Any time the sugar values should not go above 200
Explanation: Average maintenance value is 90-140 mg. So, values more than 200 is on the higher side. But it is the fluctuation of sugar levels which cause more harm than the continuous higher levels. So, you need not worry at present. Consult your doctor as usual. All the best.
