I'm a bit confused and a little worried about my blood sugar levels. My fasting blood sugar is 122, and my postprandial is 95. I always thought the postprandial level should be higher than the fasting one. Can you help me understand why this might be happening and what treatment options would be best for me? Does this mean I'm diabetic or not? I would really appreciate some guidance on this.
