Answer 1

Doctors go to medical school for years, just so that they can listen to your complaints and then give you a fancy term that means the same thing you just said. If you have high blood sugar after meals, doctors will "diagnose" that by calling it "postprandial hyperglycemia," which just means high blood sugar after eating. That fancy medical term also means that your doctor can bill you and your insurance company about $200 for a 10-minute office visit.

If your blood sugar is high after eating, that certainly indicates that you are diabetic. You need to see a doctor before you start getting serious diabetic complications. Some of the other medical terms like blindness, amputations and kidney failure are not much fun.
