Hello,

Your fasting level should be below 140 mg %, 2hrs after meals level should be below 200 mg % and HnAiC should be below 6 .5. These numbers are irrespective of age. Take these samples on 3 different days to reach conclusion.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
