I'm currently 21 weeks pregnant and recently had a blood test that showed my glucose level is 160. I'm worried if this is normal for pregnancy or if it could cause any problems. Can you provide some guidance on this?

I'm really worried and I hope you can help me. I just found out I'm pregnant, about 6 weeks along, but I started having brown spotting, which really freaked me out. So I went to see my doctor, and they did a TVS. They found a single intrauterine gestational sac, but no yolk sac or heartbeat yet, and the sac looked irregular in the report. My doctor said the fetus seems weak right now and wants me to come back for another scan in two weeks. They've put me on a weekly Susten 200 injection. Not seeing the yolk sac or heartbeat at this stage, does it mean it could be a nonviable pregnancy? Is there a chance the yolk sac might appear by the time I go for the next scan? I'm trying to prepare myself mentally just in case things dont turn out well, but I really dont know what to expect. What are the chances things could improve in these two weeks?

I'm a bit worried and would love your insight. My beta hCG level came back as 0.100 mIUml, and the ultrasound didn't show any signs of pregnancy. Does this mean my beta hCG test result is negative, or could there be something else going on? Just trying to get a clearer picture of what's happening.
Beta-hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is a hormone produced during pregnancy. A positive pregnancy test generally shows a beta-hCG level greater than 5 mIUml. Levels below 5 mIUml are typically considered negative, meaning no pregnancy.
