These blood sugar levels are indicative of diabetes. If in doubt, repeat them and also do the hba1c test. Try low sugar diet,reduce your fried items and start exercising daily. Your blood sugar levels might improve with this.Otherwise, you will have to start anti-diabetic medicines. Visit your dr at earliest.
