GD - what numbers did the doc want you to have when testing?

Mine wants the sugars to be between 60-90. That seems pretty low. Just curious if everybody else's is that low.

Re: GD - what numbers did the doc want you to have when testing?

  • Are you sure that isn't your fasting numbers?  My numbers after not eating for many hours should be between 60-94 (like when I wake up in the morning).  My numbers can be higher after eating and for a couple hours following, but my doctor does NOT want them going over 130.  (I think he actually said 139)

    This.  Fasting <90; 1 hr after meals <130

  • agreed sounds like that is your fasting number. 60-80 is very low after you eat and not very safe according to my doctor. call and double check

    Mine is less than 90 fasting less than 140 an hour after eating 

  • ok, I think you ladies are correct. I double-checked the sheet. They wrote 60-90 for fasting and then just said if it's more than 120 for a couple of days to call. So that probably is right then, that day numbers should be less than 120. omg, that's much better. Thanks!

    I've been hitting 112 today and that's with carbs. We are going shopping for the right foods tonight.

  • Mine are 95 or less when fasting and 130 or less 1 hr after starting meals.

  • Mine is less then 100 for fasting, and less then 120 two hours after finishing eating. 

    FWIW - I think it's crazy how much of a variance each of our rules are.  I know each doctor does it different but you would think there would be a bit more consistency!
