A blood sugar level of 98 mg/dL is generally considered within the normal range for fasting blood glucose. Here’s a breakdown of blood sugar levels:
Blood Sugar Level (mg/dL) Category
Less than 100 Normal
100–125 Prediabetes
126 or higher Diabetes
- Normal Range: Fasting blood sugar levels between 70–99 mg/dL are considered normal.
- Prediabetes: Levels between 100–125 mg/dL indicate prediabetes.
- Diabetes: Levels of 126 mg/dL or higher on two separate tests indicate diabetes.
A reading of 98 mg/dL suggests your blood sugar is well-managed. However, always consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice, especially if you have symptoms or risk factors for diabetes.
