Next Steps
Current fasting 101 and PP 148 are mildly elevated, but a single glucometer reading can vary and should not be interpreted in isolation.
Health Tips
Continue Metformin, diet control, and monitor fasting/PP sugars for a few days. Consult with a glucose log for individualized pregnancy diabetes management and treatment adjustment if needed.
