ABSOLUTELY!! I don't like shouting on our message board but I am doing it this time.


A random blood sugar above 190 or 200 is diagnostic for diabetes. What your husband had done is a random blood sugar. So he absolutely needs to be checked out as soon as next week (Since this is Friday afternoon when I am reading this.)


Please get back to us and let us know how he is doing. It may be that if he will follow your eating plan that he can duck this diagnosis. But you need more tests to determine what is going and please get them as soon as possible.

For one thing, he has you to 'guide' him.
