Blood Sugar Check
Overview
A Blood Sugar Check measures the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood. It is an essential test for diagnosing and managing diabetes and related metabolic conditions. At CardioMed Clinic, we provide quick, accurate testing to help you stay in control of your health.
Types
- Random Blood Sugar (RBS): Measures glucose at any time of the day.
- Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS): Taken after 8–12 hours of fasting.
- Postprandial Blood Sugar (PPBS): Checked 2 hours after a meal.
- HbA1c Test: Reflects average blood sugar levels over the past 2–3 months (available on recommendation).
Why It's Done
- To diagnose diabetes or prediabetes
- To monitor blood sugar levels in diabetic patients
- To adjust medications or lifestyle based on sugar trends
- To detect sudden spikes or drops in glucose levels
Risks
Blood sugar checks are low-risk procedures. Minor discomfort or a small bruise may occur at the finger prick or blood draw site, but side effects are minimal and temporary.
