Do I have diabetes

Well, in science class we learned about the excretory system so myteacher mentioned diabetes. I realized I had all the symptoms. I told my mom and she is making an appointment to get my blood taken. I told my friend who has diabetes and we went to the...

bathroom one day during school and she found out my blood sugar. It was 126. She said it was normal for a diabetic but high for a non diabetic, so I didnt know if that meant I had diabetes or not. What should I do? Im nervous to tell my mom because I dont want her to get mad that I took that test without her permission. But anyways, if its 126, is that high? Should I be concerned?

I think you should tell your mum what you did, but also make sure you keep your doctors appointment. only a health proffessional can give a diagnosis of a blood sugar test, so try not to get freaked out by what your friend said. there are many reasons for a high sugar level, diet etc.

I am not a diabetic but my grandma is and I think that 126 is good for you if you don't feel bad. if you ffel like your very sleepy when you have 126 in the middle of the day after a good night sleep then you don't have diabetes. if you don't then you might have diabetes.

ok...don't worry! I understand about your mom might getting mad but you have to tell her! tell her you were worried and that you just wanted to check. I'm sure she won't get that mad. plus, that is valuable info to tell your mom and your doc. I'm mot sure if 126 is high, but go to your doc as soon as possible.

Well my family has a very long history of diabetes in fact its hereditary meaning that I could get it too. Well, when I tested, I got like 93. When my father found out that he had diabetes and when he got tested he tested like 275....so I mean he clearly had diabetes. And in your case you will never know until you get real results. So in the meantime just take care of yourself.

im a diabetic myself and I've heard that 126 is high for a non diabetic.your reading should be like around the 4-6 area if you dont have it. get it checked out asap.
hope I helped.

126 is the point at which your Dr will diagnose you as diabetic if you have fasted, starting at midnight, no drinks or food, except some water. This number, 126, is too high for a fasting glucose.

126 is good. my dad is a diabetic and he says thats a good range. Mine however is 183 and that was my sugars after I havent eaten in 5 hours. I dont know what to do either. my mom is setting up an appt with a doctor soon. I hope soon enought befor its too late.

the normal ranges from 81 to 125 and it varies with what you eat, how recently you have eaten it, and how long it lingers in the body. people without diabetes can see spikes up to 134 or 140 and its considered normal if the C Reactive Peptide shows normal insulin function and a glucose tolerance test can be passed.
