I may have TYPE 2 diabetes. ( I have an appointment next week with Doc) I had a blood test done(by Doc) and my count was 130. ( I fasted for 12 hours BUT I took my liquid methadone before I got tested) I'm not sure if that effects the count?? Anyway, I bought a test kit and did some testing yesterday. Before I ate dinner, my count was 122, (time 6:00) I ate supper, had a Special K snack bar, tested blood (time 7:20) was 130. Ate 3 more bars (yes, I eat ALOT of 'em) tested blood (time 8:10) was 399. Waited 20 minutes, tested again, 192. That was last night. I KNOW I am not doing the testing procedure right, I just wanted to get an idea. Anyway, this morning I tested and it was 107. BUT, I also woke up 3 times in the night and ate granola bars. Is that common for diabetics?? Waking up in the middle of the night and craving sugar?? I do that every night!! I know theres alot here, I was just hoping that someone could tell me if this resembled a diabetics count or am I normal??

Great site to go to for info is diabetes.org. For a diabetic the after meal peak should stay below 180 (some sites say 160). Watch the carb intake. I'm assuming 4 Special K snack bars are very high in carbs.

I do have type 2 and do test daily. A good reference is the following link.
On waking up (before breakfast) 80 to 120
Before meals 80 to 120
2 hours after meals 160 or less
At bedtime 100 to 140
Good luck in the control of the problem. Good dietary habits are you best defense. This can affect your entire life but should not hinder anything you would like to attempt.

Fasting should be 90-120
1 hour after a meal should be 110-130
2 hours after a meal should be 90-120 again (roughly)
IYour blood sugar is too high, way too high and it is fluctuating too much as well. When you are waking up hungry, have your tried drinking some water instead of eating?

your doctor will test you properly but if you had a glucose of 399 at anytime you probably have some impaired glucose tolerance. If you're not "diabetic" now, you likely will become one in the future.

You really need to control your diet better!! Fasting blood sugar should be less than 100, regular blood sugar should be less than 150. What you eat definetly affects your glucose levels.
