A blood sugar level of 99 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

Below 100 Normal
100–125 Prediabetes
126 or higher Diabetes

  • Fasting Blood Sugar: A level of 99 mg/dL is below the threshold for prediabetes (100–125 mg/dL) and diabetes (126 mg/dL or higher).
  • Non-Fasting Blood Sugar: If this reading is not fasting, it could still be normal, but fasting levels are more reliable for diagnosis.

Always consult your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation, especially if you have risk factors for diabetes or other health concerns.
