Really high blood sugar

[mrcat]

Guys, I had my blood sugar tested at my job. It was on one of those things diabetics use. Anyway 286, really high they said. They wanted me to see a doctor about it. My dad has type 2. I guess this could be part of my lack of motivation lately. Anyway is there anything I can do besides a doc. I really don't like them. I'm only on low level var right now, plus tons of vit joint stuff and some andro type probably worthless stuff a friend donated....

286 is extremely high... my blood sugar is usually around 80-120 except post workout its usually low until my shake and goes up to around 160-200...

See the doc!

Normal blood glucose (blood sugar) is 85-110. Yours is 285 - I'm assuming this is between meals?

You MUST get this checked out - by a doc! NOTHING is worth having to put up with diabetes, and it would appear that you have some family predisposition to this.

IF your bodyfat levels are above, say, 10% (lots of guys confuse being fat with being "big"), then geting your bodyfat down to 10% or less MAY help this. But with a number that high, you really need to get checked!

Talk to a doctor, but until you do diet is key (not just in bodybuilding, but in controlling blood sugar). The south beach diet has actually helped alot of people to control their blood sugar and gotten them off of insulin.

286 is WAY too high. Don't take chances. Be a man. Do a follow up with the doctor and be safe and healthy.

Go see a doc asap! Your body is either not producing enough insulin (type 1 diabetes) or is not utilizing it properly (type 2). My son has type 1.
