OK, I am not diabetic, but I was experiencing head issues after dinner so I took my blood glucose reading and it came in at 204. I am very active, 5 ft 5in and 120 pounds. My head is feeling better now (4 hours later) but I am wondering what I should do. I had this feeling before (not as bad) and had a reading of 142 (after a small bowl of ice cream).
Hi, Thanks for posting in Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. Based on one reading of postprandial blood glucose of 204, it is not possible to conclude that you are diabetic. You may be in Theo category of impaired glucose tolerance. Hence, you need to get your fasting glucose, postprandial glucose and located hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels checked once again and consult Planetologist or Physician with the report for appropriate management. Hope the information provided helps. Best wishes.  Chat Doctor. S., MBBS., MD.
