What happens if my blood glucose level is high?

If you have too much glucose in your blood, you have a condition called hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia is defined as:

  • A blood glucose level greater than 125 mg/dL while in the fasting state (nothing to eat or drink for at least eight hours).

or

  • A blood glucose level greater than 180 mg/dL one to two hours after eating.
