[QUOTE="dnfuss, post: 143181, member: 15487"] Not in and of itself, if that is close to one's average fasting level. But this is far below the other fasting levels, which are generally well into the 90s (concerning in and of itself), and only appeared after a huge upward spike. It's what is referred to as "reactive hypoglycemia" and is often seen in Type 2 diabetics who have an impaired first-phase insulin response. The underperforming pancreatic beta cells then try their best to address this with an over-compensating second-phase response. Post-prandial response is not the same thing as the response to OGTT. Good possibility there would be a much stronger response to an actual OGTT. And the numbers cited for OGTT are what the ADA uses as diagnostic criteria. They also say fasting glucose levels of 100-124 are not diabetic. Many knowledgeable clinicians would say those guidelines wildly underdiagnose diabetes. In someone with truly normal blood sugars the highest reading after meals is generally not much over 100 mg/dl and almost never over 120. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
