Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. I have checked the mentioned values and do not find them very concerning. Please let me know if you are a diabetic and whether you take alcohol. If none of the two apply, there is nothing to worry about. However, if you drink, you need to restrict your alcohol intake. If you are a diabetic, regular medication and glycemic control will take care of the issue.

Let me know if I could help further.
