GD question

What is your normal fasting range number, and your number 2 hours after dinner if you take it then?

Also, what numbers is your doctor looking for you to hit?

TIA

My 2-hours after eating numbers are anywhere from 95 - 115, typically closer to 100-105, which my doctor says is fine. He just wants them under 120.

Unfortunately, my fasting numbers are too high. They want them under 100 and mine are consistently 115-120 :-(

I will probably be starting Glyburide soon if my fasting numbers don't improve in the next few days.

My normal fastings are between 85-98. I test 1 hour after - I cant comment on that.

Mine are to be under 120 after 2 hours. My fasting numbers - under 100, even better if under 95. I think my fasting number is what got me diagnosed in the first place. For my 3 hour test it was 98, they wanted 95. (All other numbers were under their guidelines.) I have been able to control my fasting numbers -somewhat- by watching the time I eat dinner and my last snack of the night.

My readings 2 hours after a meal range so much, but are usually under 100 and sometimes in the 80s.

My fasting is almost always under 90 and in the 80s for the most part.

My requirements are under 120 two hours after a meal and under 95 fasting (although the educator and my own research has indicated that some practices do under 90 so that's my personal goal).

My normal fasting number is higher than it should be..only a few times it has been under 90 like they want it. They are still trying to control it with insulin at night and have been steadily increasing my insulin since my number isn't going down. 2 hours after dinner it ranges anywhere from 90-120. It is supposed to be under 120. My after meal numbers have been good so the doctor is only making me check one of the numbers daily now. So I only have to check my blood twice daily- my fasting and 2 hours after the meal of my choice.

I've only been testing for about a week but so far my fasting has been 77 every day which is fine, my dr. wants it under 95. I test 1 hour after meals and they are usually somewhere between 100-110, my dr. wants them under 130 then.
