I'm a bit concerned about my mom who is 52. Her name is Gayatri Singh. She has blood pressure but isn't diabetic. The doctor said her blood pressure is normal, but when we did a fasting sugar test at home, it was 162. What does this mean? Could it be that she might have diabetes? I would really appreciate some guidance on this.

A fasting blood sugar level of 162 mgdL is higher than the normal range (70-99 mgdL) and indicates impaired fasting glucose, a precursor to diabetes; given your mother's age, blood pressure history, and non-diabetic status, it's essential to consult her doctor for further evaluation, including a confirmatory fasting blood sugar test, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), or HbA1c test, to determine if she has developed diabetes or prediabetes, and to discuss lifestyle modifications and potential medication to manage her blood sugar levels
