The latest medical information I have says that normal fasting blood glucose levels should be less than 100. I'd say it's time to try diet and exercise, even if you don't have a history of Diabetes in your family. Your local diabetes association chapter can hook you up with some nutrition information, or you can use on online search engine.

What diagnostic tests are used to confirm diabetes?
There are several blood tests that can diagnose diabetes. The most common is a fasting blood glucose test, where the glucose level is measured after at least eight hours of fasting. The blood glucose can be measured without fasting, but it can only diagnose diabetes, not prediabetes. The oral glucose tolerance test monitors how a body responds to an influx of glucose. After fasting for a least 8 hours, blood glucose levels are measured before and every 30-60 minutes after the ingestion of a glucose beverage for three hours. A urine test for high levels of glucose and ketones can help diagnose diabetes, but these results are not enough on their own.
Which of these tests are most affected if the patient is not fasting?

What tests are commonly performed on blood plasma?

What is a glucose level?
Glucose levels are different for different times. There are 3 glucose tests that are given. One is a fasting test, where your glucose levels are tested after fasting. Normal fasting blood glucose level is less than 100 mg of glucose per dl of blood.

What are some tests for diabetes?

How Insulin resistance is?
The two most common screening tests are the fasting blood sugar test and glucose tolerance test.
What blood work do you need to fast for?
Fasting is typically required for blood work that measures glucose levels, such as a fasting blood glucose test or an oral glucose tolerance test, as well as lipid panel tests that assess cholesterol and triglycerides. Fasting usually means no food or drink (except water) for 8-12 hours prior to the test. It's important to follow your healthcare provider's specific instructions regarding fasting for any blood work. Always consult with your doctor if you have questions about preparation for lab tests.
