That does sound high Holly, but what is normal? I watched the lab tech take my fasting blood sugar on a glucometer and it came up as 52 at 0 hrs. I don't know what any of the other results are yet but I've been trying to find someone who can tell me what normal is supposed to be...I don't know any of the insulin results either.
