Hey, my blood sugar level is at 142, and I'm a bit concerned about it. Should I be worried? Could you give me some guidance on what steps I should take next?

A blood sugar level of 142 mgdL indicates prediabetes or impaired glucose tolerance; while it's not extremely high, it's essential to take proactive steps to manage your blood sugar levels and prevent progression to diabetes; consider consulting your doctor, who may recommend lifestyle changes, such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, weight management, and stress reduction, and may also suggest regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels and potentially prescribe medication or supplements to help regulate your blood sugar.

I've just got my lab results back, and I'm a bit confused about them. My hba1c level is 5.1, which I know falls within the normal range of 4.6 to 5.6. But my fasting glucose level came back as 108, and I've read that the normal range is usually 70 to 100. What could be the reason behind this?
