Patient's question:
At the age of 62, with blood sugar at 6.4 and blood pressure at 120, he has benign prostatic hyperplasia. He manages highways, repairs bridges, and trains. He doesn't usually have any symptoms. It's a terrible diabetes.Doctor's answer:
This currently does not mean you have diabetes. Diabetes can only be diagnosed if fasting blood glucose is ≥7.0mmol/L or 2-hour post-meal blood glucose is ≥11.1mmol/L, and other conditions causing elevated blood glucose are excluded. Your blood glucose level of 6.4mmol/L is not indicative of diabetes. For benign prostatic hyperplasia, you can return to the urology department of the hospital for follow-up and consult a doctor for specific treatment guidance. Maintain a balanced diet with equal proportions of meat and vegetables for adequate nutritional intake. Benign prostatic hyperplasia can cause significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, focus on self-care training and consume more fruits and vegetables.
