any number above 200 is effecting your kidneys in a bad was.  If you are above 130 or so you could be diabetic.  My numbers are really bad but when I was found to be diabetic in 1997 my blood sugar was 297.

I am not a nurse or doctor,however,I have been diabetic (type 1) for 36 years. A normal blood sugar reading is between 80 and 120, At 190 sugar spills into your urine. That's when you become thirsty, beyond belief, and start to dehydrate. You will know every washroom in the city because of constant urination. I have been hospilized w/ a reading of about 1200. That was with taking insulin. I had dental work done, and the infection got the best of me. Your reading shows you that your sugar is high, but it is the way the sugar affects your organs that can be fatal. When I had my episode, my potassium levels were screaming high,my kidneys had shut down,I lost the vision in one eye from such a low blood pressure. I was in a coma for a day before anyone found me. I remained so for an additional five days. During that time I suffered a heart attack. Diabetes can be hard to control, even with insulin. Sometimes it becomes more complicated because of the insulin. If you can manage it without..DO IT! Get on a diet recommended by a dietition, get yourself a glucometer to check your sugar at home frequently. Exercise. Show your family the way to deal with it should they eventually have it. Your circulation is compromised, affecting your legs and feet, eyes, and kidneys, skin. High sugar means you will have a harder time fighting infections. Your teeth and gums will need extra care-and you are the only one that can do it. Don't become blind or on dialysis because you can't pass up a candy bar or a chunk of cake. your family needs you, and when you look at their smiling faces, you'll be grateful to be with them. I know I am telling you scary things. I wish someone had really explained to me HOW these things could come to pass. It's because it affects the smallest,tiniest blood vessels in your body. You don't always "just die" from diabetes. You could live a long time with what it can do to you. Good luck to you. I would be so proud of you if you could turn this thing around to become incredibley healthy. This would be the time to do that. If you see that your sugar is rising,for no apparent reason, such as large meal,eating fruit,etc.,call your doctor. It may be from a sinus infection, earache,cut that won't heal. The infection raises your sugar, your sugar makes it difficult to get rid of the infection. And so it goes..round and round. Don't wait for a huge spike in your numbers.

Not only will having a constant high sugar level bad for Kidneys, it will also severly increase your chances of going blind, losing circulation in you feet (which can lead to removal of toe and such) not to mention the constant tiredness one must feel. Having high blood sugar, on a short term effect, makes you groggy, tired, irratable, and thirtsy, not to mention the constant trips to  pee. \nGive yourself short term goals to lower your blood sugar. For instance, this week I will try to get my average level to be around 275 and I will walk 15 minutes a day, and continue this till you feel better

Anyone can get Diabetes.  People who have a family history of diabetes just have a higher risk of also developing the disease later in life than someone without family history.  Also, having a healthy diet in early life decreases chance of getting the disease.  My father is a diabetic and recently developed DKA (Diabetic ketoacidosis) which is very serious (usually results in coma or death), and can happen just by a Diabetic getting a cold.  I believe it is very important to read on DKA and on being a healthy diabetic.  It is a very serious disease and some people do not notice until it is serious or too late.

Your glucose level would elevate in your bloodstream although if you are a well controlled diabetic you should have medications on hand to compensate for this so that it would not go above 140 or 150 unless you consumed ridiculous amounts of glucose.  If you are a diabetic - and unless your glucose was documented to be low - I would not recommend that you try this.

my son's gymnastics coach is diabetic and i have wondered the same thing. someone told me when their sugar is low they can get upset easily but i haven't seen it anywhere in writing.

It depends on how your body reacts to the introduction of glucose to your body.  If your insulin levels are excessively high, it may use up the glucose more quickly than a person with a normal level of insulin; this would, in essence drop your glucose to lower than the fasting level. This can be an early indicator of diabetic risk.

Steroids are certainly known to raise blood sugar level in diabetics. However, the absorption of the steroids into the blood stream with a nasal spray is lower than that with oral steroids. So whether it will raise your Blood sugar level(BSL) will depend upon the dose and frequency of usage of the nasacort spray. It would be best to monitor your BSL with a home glucometer, if u have one, and see if it is indeed causing that- in which case the dose of your medicines/insulin may need to be adjusted. Else it would be best to ask your doc regarding the same.

Get checked!  There are kits you can get that will test your blood, you prick your finger and test your blood sugar.  Don't let it go, it could lead to more serious problems!

Generally that would be a good number, but it depends on when it was taken and the sircumstances.  If that is your reading more than 2 hrs after you have eaten or drank anything other thatn water, that would be ok.  If that is your reading after you had recently eaten, you could be hypoglycemic (low blood sugar).  It is usually best to check your BS reading at least 2 hrs after you have eaten, and not in the morning (some people have naturally elevated readings in the morning).  As always with any health related issues, you should take the advice of your doctor and not rely on board like this one.

It occurs when a diabetic person's blood sugar gets very high-generally over 350-400.  It is a medical emergency.  You can avoid it by frequent testing of your blood sugar & treating your blood sugar appropriately.

You may never get it, or you may get it tomorrow. If you are fit and exercise and are keeping active, you are no doubt burning all the carbs and sugars before they turn around and bite you in the butt. However, you may build an intolerence to your insulin, and if that happens, you will no longer be able to get rid of those sugars quickly. Diabetes is a silent preditor, so if I were you, I would simply watch the amount of sugar consumed and find out what the healthy amount of carbs and sugar are consumable for someone your age and weight and height. Moderation is always the key. Why push luck?

sugar consuption does not cause diabetes, however obesity does. If you're drinking that much pop, but not gaining weight, you probably won't develop diabetes, but it's still not healthy.

Probably, but this method of blood glucose control isn't very nutritious, not to mention boring. One of the keys to nutrition is eating a variety of foods each day. By checking your blood glucose two hours after starting to eat a meal, you can learn how different foods affect you. Over time, you will be able to predict how foods, and combinations of foods, affect your blood glucose level.

are you talking about low blood sugar( hypoglycemia)? Believe it or not this low BS is a factor in people who will become diabetic.the body's ability to regulate production and storage are already out of sync. \nOr about persons with diabetes who have gone from medications or insulin to diet and lifestyle change to control BS? No one is ever cured of this condition,it can be managed but not controlled and the real fight is to decrease the onset of all the problems that come with-out-of control BS.

Absolutely not!  Eating sugar does not induce/cause diabetes.  I'm surprised at the number of 'so-called' professionals who go on about how sugar and eating sweets can cause diabetes.  It's only because the person becomes obese, and their pancreas can't produce enough insulin, or the insulin that they do produce isn't able to be used effectively, that they become diabetic.\n\nHaving said that, diabetes is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.  Eating a diet high in fat and sugar can cause you to become overweight.  Being overweight increases your risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, so if you have a history of diabetes in your family, a healthy diet and regular exercise are recommended to control your weight.\n\nAs for your second question about sugar substitutes, too much of them can have a laxative effect on people, so be careful how much of those you take.  (You are aware that sugar substitutes are actually sweeter than sugar, aren't you?  This means that you wouldn't need anywhere near as much to get the same effect.)\n\nBest of luck.
