A fasting blood sugar level of 99 mg/dL or lower is normal, 100 to 125 mg/dL indicates you have prediabetes, and 126 mg/dL or higher indicates you have diabetes. 131 indicates you have diabetes. Take medications as recommended by doctor and also make lifestyle changes.
No, the person falls under prediabetes. One can reverse it by eating low carbohydrate diet and exercising daily.
Fasting insulin is done to measure the serum insulin in the body. An insulin test measures the insulin levels in your blood. It is used to diagnose hypoglycemia, insulin resistance, and other health issues.
Insulin is usually recommended if a person's HbA1c level at diagnosis is greater than 10% or if someone's fasting blood glucose level is consistently above 250 mg/dl.
