Q: Blood Sugar High Or Normal

Hi all.

I've been a little concerned about my blood sugar lately and I was needing everyone else opinion on this matter. I went to my Family doc about some dizziness and fatigue, very bad spells of it, she suspected adrenal cancer because of all of my symptoms and ordered a cat scan of my abdomen. (Which came back normal) But at this visit she checked my B12 levels and blood sugar. Just to let you know why I don't really trust this doc anymore, my B12 came back at 171 range 200-1100, and she told me to "eat more vegetables".....yeah. So anyway, I went to get a copy of all my labs for my Endo and saw my blood sugar was 108....which she told me that day was normal. But she never asked if I had eaten anything....my test was done at 9:30 am, and I had not eaten or drank anything since 7:30 pm the night before. The paper I was given said 108 h...which I knew then was considered high by the lab. I dont know if she assumed I ate breakfast or not, so I was wondering if this could be insulin resistance. In the past 2 years I have added on ALOT of weight in my stomach especially in the upper middle, which has always been flat. Since I was a little concerned about the blood sugar level, my moms boyfriend used his meter on me while I was visiting, and 45 minutes after I ate it was 159...but we forgot to take it again 2 hours later, so I don't know if that result of 159 is useful or not. My Endo hasn't said anything about the result to me, so I don't know if he considers it normal too, or just didn't pay attention to that part because he is just treating me for Hypo, even though Diabetes is his specialty. I go to see him next month, should I mention this to him?

Thanks for the help, and sorry for the long post.
