A blood glucose level of 115 mg/dL can be interpreted as follows:

  • Fasting Blood Sugar: If this is a fasting blood sugar level (measured after not eating for at least 8 hours), it is slightly elevated. Normal fasting blood sugar levels are typically between 70-99 mg/dL. A level of 100-125 mg/dL is considered prediabetes, and 126 mg/dL or higher on two separate tests indicates diabetes.
  • Post-Meal Blood Sugar: If this is a post-meal (postprandial) blood sugar level, it is within the normal range. Post-meal blood sugar levels should generally be less than 140 mg/dL.

If you consistently see fasting blood sugar levels around 115 mg/dL, it may indicate prediabetes, and you should consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and advice.
