Diabetes Meter

My friend said that you and I would like to know if it's true. Thanks! If your blood sugar is above 140, you probably have diabetes but a doctor should examine you to find safe. Blood glucose meter is used to monitor blood sugar. they are only a doctor can do a test to diagnose diabetes order "for diabetes testing. I think that a meter can give you an idea of your blood sugar was ok, but only a doctor can give you a real DX. glucometers are very useful for to establish the diagnosis of diabetes. There is confusion in this forum about the accuracy of glucose monitors. 1 and 2 generation glucometer readings gave a 10 to 15%, differed from a venous blood sugar. 3 and 4, but generation glucometers give identical results with a venous blood. Doctors are using glucometers every day in medical practice. A non-diabetic fasting glucose is usually not more than 100 mg / dl or 5.6 mmol / L. A diabetic person two hours post-prandial (after meal) glucose is generally higher than 140 mg / dL or 78 mmol / L. Please note that I say "generally" because there will be some variation from one day to another. If you have multiple readings outside this range of reference, you should consult your doctor. I wish him the best of health and in all things God bless you. yes .
