Patient's question:
Yesterday I tried measuring my blood pressure myself and found it was 7.0. I'm very worried that I might have diabetes, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, under normal circumstances, if you are fasting and the blood sugar level is no more than 6.1, you can measure it three times in a row. At the same time, monitor your blood sugar two hours after a meal. You can also have your glycosylated hemoglobin tested at the hospital to confirm whether you have diabetes based on the examination results. Generally, a level of 7.0 is not a major concern, and it can be controlled through diet. There is no need to worry too much. Finally, wish you a speedy recovery.
