Since you have pollen allergy, are you currently taking any medicines which contain steroids because steroids lead to increase in blood sugar.

Dear lybrate-user! Your fasting sugar is in diabetes in range. Please get your HbA1c done (3 monthly blood glucose average) and get in touch with an endocrinologist immediately. Uncontrolled diabetes damages all major organs of the body including heart brain kidneys and nerves. Simple medicines are needed to keep blood glucose in control and avoid major complications of diabetes. These medicines are perfectly safe.
