    Fasting Blood Sugar Test at MedEx Neo Clinic, Kathmandu

    What is a Fasting Blood Sugar Test?

    The Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) test measures the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood after you have fasted (not eaten) for at least 8 hours. It is a vital test used to evaluate your body's ability to regulate blood sugar and is commonly used in diagnosing and monitoring diabetes.

    Why is the Fasting Blood Sugar Test Important?

    • Diagnose Diabetes and Prediabetes: The test helps identify if you have diabetes or are at risk (prediabetes), enabling early intervention to prevent complications.
    • Monitor Diabetes Management: For patients already diagnosed with diabetes, the test tracks how well blood sugar levels are controlled through diet, medication, or insulin therapy.
    • Assess Risk of Complications: Abnormal fasting blood sugar levels can indicate increased risk for heart disease, kidney problems, and nerve damage.

    When Should You Get Tested?

    • If you have symptoms like increased thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, or fatigue.
    • If you have risk factors such as a family history of diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, or a sedentary lifestyle.
    • As part of routine health checkups to screen for diabetes, especially for adults over 45 or younger individuals with risk factors.

    How is the Test Performed?

    A blood sample is collected from a vein after an overnight fast of at least 8 hours. The sample is then analysed using advanced laboratory methods available at MedEx Neo Clinic to accurately measure blood glucose levels.

    Normal Range for Fasting Blood Sugar:

    • Normal: Less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L)
    • Prediabetes: 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L)
    • Diabetes: 126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests

    Interpreting the Results:

    • Normal Levels: Indicate healthy blood sugar regulation.
    • Prediabetes: Suggests a higher risk for developing diabetes; lifestyle changes and medical guidance can help prevent progression.
    • Diabetes: Requires comprehensive management including lifestyle modifications, medications, and regular monitoring to prevent complications.
