Patient's question:
My grandparents on both sides of my family have type 2 diabetes. I was recently diagnosed with diabetes as well, and it's type 2. I have a six-year-old sister. Today, two hours after her meal, her blood sugar was 5.8. She eats a lot, drinks a lot, and urinates frequently.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the standard normal values for pre-meal blood sugar and post-meal two-hour blood sugar in a six-year-old child should be the same as those for adults. Advice: The normal values are generally pre-meal 3.8-6.1 mmol/L, one hour post-meal: 7.8-9.0 mmol/L, and two hours post-meal: 3.9-7.8 mmol/L. The child's two-hour post-meal reading of 5.8 should be within the normal range.Doctor's inquiry:
