Blood sugar levels

[Paschal]

Hello everyone. Was diagnosed with T2D eight weeks ago. Blood result: 52. On Metformin. My question is regarding blood sugar level testing. Before breakfast, an average of 6 to 6.5. Some hours after eating, creeping up to 7 but never over. Since I am rather careful about what I eat and exercise everday, do you think these results are worryingly high? I would appreciate any ideas. Thank you.

Those aren’t “worryingly high” @Paschal 🙂 Worryingly high would be 20 or similar. These are the targets:

If you have type 2 diabetes​

• before meals: 4 to 7mmol/l
• two hours after meals: less than 8.5mmol/l

No, as inka says those are within target and not worrying at all
