Pl. guide me. Thanking you.
ANSWER: Hi Vijay,
What I can see from your blood sugar levels checking results, they seem to be perfectly normal.
I hope you will go on with regular check-ups (every year for your age) and hope you won't have any problems with diabetes.
In addition, if you do not have
history family of diabetes, are conducting a
healthy lifestyle and following a
healthy diet; then, I think you are on the right way to be far away from
diabetes problems.
With regards to your RBS of 92, that is perfectly normal as it fall within the
normal blood glucose readings (until 120, the maximum and 70 the minimum).
Therefore, you do not need to do further check-ups for diabetes unless you have something in your medical records that I am not aware of.
At the end, I would like to suggest to you further regular check-ups for your age like
lipid profile and
prostate. These check-ups will catch in time any problem you might have although I hope you won't have.
All the best! Keep up the good and healthy life!
