okay my fasting blood test #1 (out of 8!) was 118. after drinking the orange stuff it got as high as 168. it bottomed out at 65 & they wouldn't let me leave the dr. office until it came back up. it finally did get up to 88, and they let me leave. my dr. left for the afternoon before i could get his diagnosis. what do you think the #'s say?
i think we ruled out diabetes, right?
thx.

they will likely start you on the track to eating much better. & see how you go from there. I had my 1 hour test with my ds#1 and my 1 hr was 205, so i never took the 3 hr, went right to the diabetes educator!
good luck.

Kristie,
I think they ruled in pre-diabetes. What this means is that you must make some serious lifestyle changes to prevent becoming diabetic. You must get your weight as close to normal as possible and you must exercise.
Let's see if I am correct. Please post as soon as your doctor tells you anything. I am glad they made you wait until you got your blood sugar back up as you were a danger to yourself.
Take care and I look forward to hearing from you soon,
