I Am Worried About My Fasting Blood Sugar Result by Daum: 12:40am On Jul 17, 2019
Good morning Nairalanders.
Over a couple of months I have lost so much body weight. It has been a gradual process since school resumed but it peaked during my examination period. Another thing I noticed is that my thirst increased and my need to urinate also did. I am in my final year so and I am under pressure of graduating with a 2.1 from skool so I have been under so much pressure.
I went to do a blood fasting sugar test after taking my previous meal at about 7:30pm and taking the test by 9am the next day. The result showed 98mg/mL and I read that anything above 100 means I am prediabetic. I am just 24 and I am a bit worried about this.

The ideal time to visit the Lab for your fasting sugar blood test is before 8am. At 9am you were already late, very late, the Lab scientist should have explained the timing to you.

I advise that you redo the fasting sugar blood test again. This time, no water or food should be taken beyond 8:00pm and on the following day, visit the Lab before 8:00am to give samples of your blood for the fasting sugar blood test.

Rubbish.Thats how you people would be passing wrong and dangerous information around with confidence.
Who told you fasting blood sugar must be done before 8am?Do you even understand why it's called fasting?
If you don't know something why don't you shut up!

Fasting blood sugar can be done anytime the next day as long as it is more that 8hours of fasting.

98mg/DL is not bad, fasting blood sugar value is not fixed,it fluctuates within the normal limits,some days it could be lower.

Your symptoms could all be in your head.For now you are fine.

You should learn to pass on your comments without resorting to insulting me.

The Lab scientists at Kelina hospital in Gwarinpa made me understand that fasting sugar blood test must be carried out before 8am when I wanted to do mine sometime ago. Was I wrongly informed?

You obviously were.
Fasting blood sugar level,as it literarily means is that you should have been "fasting",about 8hrs at least.
The only reason why it's usually done in the early morning is because it's more convenient and easier for people to not have eaten after dinner at night.
If u do same 8 hours fasting during any time of the day,it still is ok to be measured.
Secondly,even if you eat and do the test,say immediately or say 2hours after,your sugar test can still be done.The only difference is that a different,higher range,of values,will then be used to gauge if your sugar level is still within normal range.
Finally 98mg/dl,even if it's fasting,is still within normal range,don't allow anyone scare you.
