thats good. i was suppose to have mine done weeks ago, but i am a chicken and have been putting it off for some time now. lol. i am terrified of them saying i have it. i know, if taken care of, it's nothing really dangerous, it's just the fact of getting the test done...and i hate needles. lol |

222 is kinda high, how long after you last ate did you take it and what did you eat?  |

My dad has diabetes, it runs on his side of the family. I'm hoping that I don't get it though.  |

Type I and Type II Diabetes are different. Usually Type I comes at a younger age, Type II is usually adult onset. A fasting blood glucose will be somewhere between 70 and 120. I'm not diabetic but I check mine frequently and fasting is usually 95-100. After eating it will go up. Over 150 after eating may indicate diabetes. You need other tests to determine for sure. See your doctor, I would advise an endocrinologist but if that isn't possible ask your family doc to run the blood tests needed.  |
