A blood sugar level of 183 mg/dL is considered high, especially if measured after fasting or before a meal. Here’s a breakdown of blood sugar levels:

Blood Sugar Level (mg/dL) Category

Below 100 Normal (fasting) 100–125 Prediabetes
126 or higher Diabetes
180 or higher High (post-meal)

  • Fasting: A level of 183 mg/dL is above the normal range and may indicate diabetes or poor blood sugar control.
  • Post-Meal: While post-meal levels can be higher, 183 mg/dL is still elevated and should be monitored.

If you consistently experience high blood sugar levels, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
