What Does This Blood Sugar Level Of 204 Indicate?
hello, over the weekend i went hiking and fell and cut my hand, when we got back to the truck my cousin, who is type 1 diabetic, tested his blood and I wanted to test mine just for fun. We tested mine and it was 204. Is this bad if I am not a diabetic?

Hi, this blood sugar level is high.
It does not mean that you are a Diabetic.
Please get it repeated as a fasting level, OGTT and also get your HbA1C levels. This is also a blood test. Get these done and show it to your GP or a Physician. You could also ask us as a Specialist or a Direct query and upload your investigations. We could then let you know whether it looks like Diabetes or not and what should be done.
Take care,
