As someone who has been diagnosed with blood glucose problems ("pre-Diabetes") and done some reading on this whole topic, I would say that 4.9 is indeed "allright". While it is well within the "normal" range (whose upper bound, in the USA at least, is 5.6), I suggest you do some more reading on this - it appears that some in the medical community think that increased risk for problems "begins" at a reading as low as 4.9. In short, if I were you, I would take action (e.g. lose weight, if appropriate, change diet, exercise more) if the number drifted above 5.0.
It is generally a good idea to fast before testing your blood sugar first thing in the morning. If you test immediately after eating or drinking, the reading will not be as accurate.
My blood sugar was 108 this morning before I had eaten. Is this considered high?
Diabetes sugar levels should be monitored throughout the day. Your doctor will advise you when to test your blood sugar. Most often, it is tested in the morning before eating and before or after meals.
Eating before a blood test will cause your blood sugar levels to rise. That is why they are referred to as "fasting" blood tests, meaning you are not supposed to eat or drink anything but water before having them.
The blood type diet is a fad diet and is not accurate information. As long as you are eating healthy and your diet is well balanced you should be alright with any diet.
A normal blood sugar range is between 70 and 120 mg/dL. Your 70 is on the lower end. It is fine if you have had the test done before you ate in the morning but it is too low if you have been eating.
No. Drinking water is fine. In most cases you will fast overnight, eating nothing and drinking nothing but water after your evening meal and in the morning before your blood is drawn.
is 109 ok
Not the classic hormone caused one, it occurs too soon in pregnancy for the twins to mass enough to count. However, often morning sickness is caused by low blood sugar. It often happens in the mornings because you are not eating during the night, but the baby continues to use your stored calories. This can make your blood sugar levels dip by morning. Low blood sugars can make you feel nauseated, shaky, and sweaty and even vomit. When you have twins or other multiple fetus pregnancies, the blood sugars can dip even more during fasting at night and you may feel more sickness from that in the morning before you take in some calories to raise your blood sugar back up. See the related question below, "Why does eating a protein meal late at night prevent morning sickness?", for more information about this cause of morning sickness in many women.
Your blood sugar levels will be the highest after you eat a meal and lowest if you haven't eaten, in the morning they will be lower if taken before breakfast 4 to 8mmol/l.
it is done in the morning with no breakfast that day.
wake up every morning with blood on my tongue
