Does fasting blood glucose 6.9 exceed the standard? Of course, it is over the standard. If the fasting blood glucose level exceeds 6. 1mmol/L, it belongs to the blood glucose exceeding the standard, while the fasting blood glucose reaches 6.9, which is not a very high level, and even the diagnosis of diabetes above 7.0 is not counted. For such a situation, we usually call it "impaired fasting blood sugar", which is an abnormal blood sugar, which is the blood sugar situation of pre-diabetes.
A blood sugar level that is not even diabetes, if you are scared to death and think it may threaten your life and health, it is too much and really unnecessary. For physical health problems, we should avoid some extreme health examination indicators. At one extreme, regardless of the test value, as long as the body does not feel it, the result is some chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and so on. No one cares for a long time, and when symptoms and problems appear, they are often major problems such as myocardial infarction and stroke, so we will take care of them at this time, although it is not to say that we can't. On the other hand, if the physical examination indicators are a little abnormal, you will be scared, for fear that the indicators will fluctuate a little, and a little exceeding the standard will shorten your life. I don't know that many times, the adverse effects of nervous and anxious emotions on your body are far greater than the health hazards caused by a little exceeding the standard.
Then I found that a certain physical examination index exceeded the standard. What should the correct attitude be? First of all, don't be afraid. It is possible for the body to have such abnormal indicators. For example, there is no need to worry too much about the problem of fasting blood glucose exceeding 6.9. The first thing we should do is not to worry about fear, but to fully evaluate the risk of exceeding the standard. Fasting blood sugar is 6.9. If we only look at this blood sugar level, the health hazards and health risks it brings are actually not great. As for life-threatening, it is even more impossible, but you can't just look at this value when evaluating risks. If your blood sugar is 6.9, and your blood pressure and blood lipid are seriously exceeding the standard, after comprehensive evaluation, you may belong to the high-risk group of cardiovascular disease. Therefore, when we see the problem of elevated blood sugar, we should first evaluate the health risk brought by this value in combination with health risk, and reasonably control and improve the problem of elevated blood sugar.
Aside from other factors, the blood sugar has reached 6.9. I suggest you do a glucose tolerance test to see if your body has the problem of increased blood sugar after meals. If your fasting blood sugar is 6.9, and the blood sugar measured after 2 hours of glucose tolerance test exceeds 1 1. 1, you can still diagnose diabetes. But whether it is diabetes or not, fasting blood glucose 6.9 is not a very high blood glucose value, which should be controllable, but don't worry too much.
If fasting blood glucose is 6.9, how should we strengthen control? If the postprandial blood sugar is ok, you are not a diabetic friend. If the fasting blood sugar is 6.9, even hypoglycemic drugs are not needed. For such a blood sugar level, it is often effective to regulate and control in life and strengthen strict self-discipline in life. For the life conditioning of hyperglycemia, we should emphasize two aspects that we often say, diet conditioning and strengthening exercise.
Diet is to control the excessive intake of sugar and energy, maintain the nutritional balance of the body, strengthen and persist in exercise, increase the consumption of the body, improve the utilization rate of sugar and the insulin resistance of the body. The combination of the two can effectively regulate and reduce blood sugar. If we can persist for a long time, it is entirely possible for such fasting blood glucose level to return to the normal level below 6. 1.
I also want to say that for such a blood sugar level, if the blood sugar level is controlled through reasonable life conditioning intervention, we must continue to adhere to the original healthy living habits, and at the same time pay attention to regular inspection and measurement of blood sugar. If blood sugar has been maintained well, it means that a healthy lifestyle has brought you long-term health benefits. If the blood sugar exceeds the standard further under strict life control and some typical symptoms of diabetes appear, you must pay attention to adding drugs.
In short, fasting blood glucose 6.9 is not a terrible value. If we correctly realize that our blood sugar has exceeded the standard, we can actively pay attention to it. At the same time, we don't have to be afraid of high blood sugar, let alone worry that our lives will be affected by high blood sugar. Our life and health are always changing dynamically. Only by facing up to health problems and actively regulating health problems can we better ensure our health and ensure our life span.
From this figure alone, a blood sugar of 6.9 will not cause life-threatening problems.
Normal process
The simple 1 blood sugar is an instantaneous value, which can only represent the blood sugar at the time of measurement, because this data is a common blood sugar value of diabetics, and even non-diabetics often reach the postprandial blood sugar value of 6.9.
A dangerous situation
For some patients, this data may lead to a sudden increase in blood sugar in the next time period, leading to diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar coma, which may lead to life-threatening; For other patients, there may be a sharp drop in blood sugar in the next period of time, leading to hypoglycemia coma and death.
It shows that 6.9 may be the process of deterioration of the disease, but it may also be a sign of gradual improvement of the disease.
This is because the human body is an organism with multiple organs working together. It is not only blood sugar that determines a person's life, but also the functions of heart, brain, kidney, liver and lung.
For patients with heart and brain renal failure, even if the blood sugar is 6.9, life-threatening still exists.
For example, a person who died suddenly may be non-diabetic, and his blood sugar may be around 69, but his life may have come to an end!
For diabetic patients, if the blood sugar is controlled below 7.0 as much as possible, the risk of complications will be significantly smaller.
There is no life-threatening, but it depends on the type of diabetes. If it is gestational diabetes, the blood sugar should be below 5.3 before three meals and below 6.7 two hours after three meals, otherwise it will increase the risk of complications such as fetal macrosomia, intrauterine death and premature delivery.
Let's not think about it. I stayed there for eight years. Type 2, the doctor keeps me taking medicine. Usually interested in diabetes knowledge. Talk to people around you. If you take it seriously, you can beat the disease. What time is it now? Up and down a little higher. Are you that nervous? Doctors should take medicine. We don't make mistakes made by others. I know a person who usually takes medicine three times a day and then rushes to ten o'clock at a time. So you can't just stop taking the medicine. There is also an acquaintance who will go to Shanghai for treatment at ten o'clock. Does this have anything to do with that 6.9? Is it so difficult to convince it and care about it? Be careful in your life. Life can't be arbitrary. Understand it and convince it. Go away.
Hello everyone! I am Dr. Yang, a general practitioner, focusing on the management of blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipid and uric acid. Let me answer the question of this netizen.
Blood sugar generally includes fasting blood sugar and blood sugar 2 hours after meals.
If the fasting blood glucose is 6.9mmol/L, it is in the stage of impaired fasting blood glucose (6. 1~7.0mmol/L), which may lead to diabetes. It is suggested that glucose tolerance test (OGTT test) can be done to determine whether there is diabetes.
Through glucose tolerance test, we can know whether the function of insulin β cells is damaged, whether there is abnormal blood sugar regulation, and predict the risk of diabetes.
If the blood sugar is 6.9mmol/L 2 hours after a meal, then the blood sugar is within the normal range (7.8mmol/L 2 hours after a normal meal).
In real life, the blood sugar measured by healthy people and most diabetics is fasting blood sugar, which often ignores the blood sugar 2 hours after meals, which easily leads to missed diagnosis of diabetes, that is to say, the blood sugar 2 hours after meals should also be monitored regularly, especially for high-risk groups of diabetes.
This blood sugar is not life-threatening, but as I said before, it is in the stage of impaired fasting blood sugar. If a glucose tolerance test is done, even if diabetes is not diagnosed, it belongs to pre-diabetes and may develop into diabetes. Therefore, it is time to pay attention to controlling blood sugar and monitoring blood sugar regularly.
Controlling the blood sugar in pre-diabetes will greatly reduce the possibility of developing diabetes in the future, thus reducing the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and cerebral infarction.
So, how to control it? At this stage of blood sugar, there is no need to take hypoglycemic drugs. You just need to have a healthy lifestyle such as diet control, moderate exercise, weight control, smoking cessation and alcohol restriction. Diet control is mainly to limit the intake of staple food, eat less high-calorie foods such as fat meat, and appropriately increase the intake of fresh vegetables and fruits; Moderate exercise means that everyone is advised to do at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise every day, such as brisk walking, jogging, playing Tai Ji Chuan and square dancing. Weight control requires everyone to control the body mass index at 18.5~23.9kg/m? In addition, blood sugar should be monitored, and fasting blood sugar should be monitored at least twice a year.
Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about fasting blood glucose of 6.9mmol/L, but attention should be paid to it, which can play a role in preventing diseases.
Is the blood sugar 6.9mmol/L on an empty stomach or after meals? The postprandial blood glucose was 6.9mmol/L, which was meaningless. The fasting blood glucose of 6.9mmol/L has exceeded the upper limit of the normal reference of 6.1mmol/L. It is suggested to further check, screen glucose tolerance test and glycosylated hemoglobin to determine whether you have diabetes.
Blood sugar 6.9mmol/L is not life-threatening. Let's start with normal people. If it is postprandial blood sugar, then 6.9 is normal; If it is random or fasting blood sugar, 6.9 is not very high. If there is no symptom of "three more and one less", it cannot be said that it is diabetes. If the pregnant woman's blood sugar is 6.9, it is best to go to the hospital. It may be gestational diabetes, but it is not life-threatening.
For diabetics, blood sugar 6.9 should be controlled well, not to mention life-threatening.
So how much blood sugar is life-threatening?
1. hypoglycemia. Normal adults' blood sugar is lower than 2.8mmol/L, and diabetic patients' blood sugar is lower than 3.9 mmol/L. At this time, hypoglycemia coma will occur, and glucose needs to be supplemented in time, otherwise the coma time will be life-threatening.
2. High blood sugar. When the blood sugar is greater than 33.3mmol/L, diabetic hyperosmolar coma will occur, which requires immediate medical attention. In clinical work, I have seen that my blood sugar is 28.3mmol/L, and I am already in a coma, so as long as my blood sugar is greater than 20mmol/L, I should intervene in time.
Professional doctors will answer your questions.
Let's first look at such a set of data: after 3-5 years of uncontrolled diabetes, various complications will occur, which can involve all tissues and organs of the whole body; Most of the early complications can be reversed by active treatment, otherwise they will continue to develop into irreversible lesions and cause serious consequences, such as coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, uremia, blindness and so on. Serious diseases seriously affect the quality of life, and accidents such as sudden death may occur at any time, greatly reducing life expectancy.
Of course, this process is gradual, and it may take years, decades, and decades. Hyperglycemia and diabetes have no obvious symptoms in the early stage, but the damage to the body, especially the damage to blood vessels, occurs unconsciously. Only by controlling hyperglycemia as soon as possible can we avoid serious consequences. Therefore, the persistence of hyperglycemia will eventually have an irreparable impact on life, and we must not take it lightly because the blood sugar is not very high.
With this knowledge, let's look at the blood sugar problem of 6.9 mmol/L. If this blood sugar is fasting blood sugar, it has obviously exceeded the upper limit of normal value. Although the impact on life will not appear immediately, it should also be taken seriously, and at least two things need to be done:
First of all, go to the hospital for glucose tolerance test immediately to make a clear diagnosis of the current blood sugar level. You should know that the judgment of whether blood sugar is normal is divided into several situations:
What needs to be known is that most people will develop diabetes within 1-3 years if they are in pre-diabetes, without intervention and control; Diabetes is a lifelong disease that needs lifelong treatment, and diabetes is a progressive disease, which will continue to progress and aggravate with the increase of the number of years of illness. Therefore, early diagnosis, early treatment and persistent treatment are very important.
Second, according to the situation, do relevant inspections. Hyperglycemia is a metabolic disorder and disorder disease. At the same time, blood lipid and blood pressure may also be abnormal, which requires simultaneous examination. More importantly, hyperglycemia will not happen suddenly. Many people actually had high blood sugar levels for a long time before they were discovered. Some early complications may have occurred, so we need to investigate, such as urine test to see if there is any protein, whether there is microvascular disease in the fundus, and whether there is large and medium-sized vascular disease in carotid artery by color Doppler ultrasound.
In a word, we can't treat the problem of high blood sugar lightly, let alone ignore it without feeling. We can't wait until the blood sugar is higher to intervene. The sooner the blood sugar is controlled to reach the standard, the greater the benefit in the future. Practice has proved that diabetic patients can enjoy the same life span as normal people after active intervention and treatment.
In fact, it is necessary to understand that blood sugar 6.9 is only a state now, and it is necessary to find out whether it is a long-term abnormal state or an abnormal state.
If the fasting blood glucose is 6.9, most people have no special circumstances. Active diet control can also achieve good results. There is no need to use special drugs or some other treatment methods for the time being.
Then two hours after a meal, the blood sugar is 6.9, so this is not a very abnormal state, don't worry.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about blood sugar 6.9, and it is more important to know your related status. Otherwise, many people will have some other abnormal conditions and complications of diabetes in the later stage, which will cause adverse reactions of patients.
I wish you all good health!
Is blood sugar 6.9 life-threatening? Generally speaking, the normal blood glucose range is: fasting blood glucose: 3.9 6. 1 mmol/L, postprandial 1 hour: 6.7-9.4 mmol/L, and postprandial 2 hours: 7.8 mmol/L. ..
It can be seen that whether on an empty stomach or after meals, blood sugar 6.9 is not a very high value, and it will never endanger life. However, it should be noted that if it is fasting blood sugar, then this blood sugar value is indeed beyond the range of normal blood sugar, which belongs to abnormal blood sugar and needs vigilance.
If you find abnormal blood sugar, you must pay attention to monitoring the changes of blood sugar before and after meals. If you find that this abnormality still exists, and there are early symptoms of diabetes such as weakness, increased nocturia, decreased vision, dry throat and dry tongue, you must pay attention to it and go to the hospital for diagnosis in time.
If you are diagnosed with diabetes, you need to take medicine regularly under the guidance of a doctor, and pay attention to controlling the intake of sugar and salt, try to eat lightly, eat regularly and quantitatively, exercise more at ordinary times, and avoid smoking and drinking.
