What is the disorder in which cells are unable to obtain glucose from the blood such that high blood-glucose levels result?
Diabetes is what you're asking for. However, it is not the bodys inability to obtain glucose from the blood. It is the inability of the pancreas to secrete insulin to help control the amount of glucose in the body.
Does candy cause glucose to go up?
Eating candy can cause a person's glucose to go up especially if the person has diabetes. If one has diabetes, glucose levels are affected by foods high in carbohydrates.
Fbc blood test?
A fasting blood glucose test (FBC) measures the amount of glucose in your blood after you have not eaten for at least 8 hours. This test is commonly used to diagnose diabetes or monitor blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes. High levels of glucose in the blood can indicate diabetes, while low levels can be a sign of hypoglycemia.
Why does decreased insulin cause diabetes?
Insulin is what catabolises (breaks down) glucose following a high carbohydrate meal. Diabetes has 4 types: only type 1 diabetes is related to insulin (seen in children and adolescents). It is called Insulin-Dependent Diabetes. Diabetes is basically very high levels of glucose found in the blood (greater then 250mg/dl) after testing. Where, normal fasting ranges of glucose = 70-110mg/dl Type 1: If their is a severe lack of insulin in the body. Glucose is unable to be broken down by the body (by stomach juices), because glucose is "dependent" upon insulin to be broken down causing diabetes (high levels of glucose in the body).
What medications cause blood glucose levels to rise?

Can someone please explain diabetes in much detail?
diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by high blood sugar glucose levels, that result from defects in insulin secretion of action or both. diabetes mellitus, commonly referred to as diabetes was identified as a disease associated with sweet urine and excessive muscle loss in the ancient world. elevated levels of blood glucose hyperglycemia lead to spillage of glucose into urine, hence the term sweet urine. normally, blood glucose levels are tightly controlled by insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas. insulin lowers the blood glucose level. when the glucose elevates insulin is released from the pancreas to normalize the glucose level. in patients with diabetes, the absence of insufficient production of insulin causes hyperglycemia. diabetes is a chronic medical condition, meaning that although although it can be controlled, it lasts a lifetime. information found at: MediceNet.com
What does the glucose meter read?
A glucose meter reads the amount of glucose in the bloodstream. This is particularly important for those who suffer from certain types of diabetes, where their glucose levels get either dangerously low or high.
What does high blood levels of glucose stimulates the release of?
High blood levels of glucose stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreas. Insulin helps to lower blood glucose levels by promoting the uptake of glucose by cells for energy production and storage.
