   That is not too abnormally high. It may have been a little elevated because you ate right before?

   There are many factors that contribute to developing diabetis (your sugar level I think is not enough to warrant that diagnosis; you need more tests). Your lifestyle, obesity, and, especially, your genetic makeup all contribute. If you are overweight, losing weight is a priority.

   Blood sugar problems are not something to take to YA! board though. There are plenty resources out there, starting with your doctor. Schedule a visit with your doctor, schedule further tests, discuss lifestyle changes and medication options (again, your blood sugar isn’t conclusively a sign of diabetis).

   Wired: the "normal" cutoff levels for a diabetic person are different from the levels for healthy people.

   That’s nothing really to be worried about. Generally, we consider 110 or below to be normal, 110-125 to be pre-diabetes, and 126+ to be diabetes as the fasting glucose levels.

   That is odd. My daughter has Type 1 and the range we try to keep her in, for a normal bg, is 80-150. That is supposed to be the normal range…when we check ourselves at home its always around the range you just mentioned. High would be like in the 2 or 300′s and really really high, close to coma would be around 7-800s. Are you sure you have the right number??
