I have been feeling dizzy for about 2 months now(it started all of a sudden one evening), I can not focus, I have these crisis of diziness where I barely resist on my feet. The doctors did a CT, MRI, and all sorts of blood tests. They came out fine. Recently (7 days ago) I got checked for glucose, at about 2 pm and it was around 56. Yesterday morning after breakfast 79, then 109, this morning before breakfast 124 and today after lunch 137. I urinate a lot... Am I diabetic? I am 26 and I dont have any family members with diabetes.

That doesn't sound like Diabetes. Your sugar levels would be higher than what you mentioned. The levels you did say seem normal. Have you asked your doctor about possibly being Hypoglycemic? Which I believe is not enough sugar as compared to too much sugar in your body.

Diabetes is only diagnosed when blood glucose levels exceed 200 and when your fasting blood glucose exceeds 126.
The reading of 56 is concerning your blood sugar was too low this can account for the symptoms you are experiencing. The 56 is a hypoglycemic reading blood sugar should not drop below 70.
These symptoms can have many causes but I would rule out diabetes. Continue to be persistent with your doctor to get to the bottom of the problem.

If you are concerned about this talk to your Doctor. He or she may do a test called a fasting blood sugar on you. This means you do not eat for a specific number of hours and then you go and have blood drawn. This will give you a better idea if there is a concern. A level of 56 is below normal. Do you eat a healthy diet? That would be my first question for you.

any reading of sugar blood that is over 100 means you are. its not high but its enough to include you sometimes there are some that because of one thing or another you could be only one but that could be the start of it going through the family now i mena it could be way bck in the family genes that there was one you missed and maybe they died very early in life so there was no recrod of it. so yes you are get moving to see doctor.

Looks like your variation in sugar level is not good
For your age such variations need a consultation with a doc
So get a proper fasting and Postprandial check done

Sooooooooooo, what did your doctor tell you about the numbers? That is who can tell you what they mean and if you are diabetic. Sounds like you need to keep seeing him until you get to the bottom of this. Probably not diabetes though.

Eat 3 times a day, stay away from sugar and eat whole grain carbohydrates. See if that helps.
