Hii am having anxiety disorder. I had an acute panic attack and was taken to hospital. They did a test grbs for blood sugar. And the result was 143 mg/dl. Is it normal or am I diabetic? Am taking anxiety medications which are nexito, lonazep and metoprolol succinate.

You need to get blood sugar levels both fasting and post prandial. Also hb1ac to know about diabetes. Your level of 143 is random blood sugar level.

Madam, I advise you to get a proper blood sugar fasting, pp and hb a1c done as random blood sugar have a little value to pick up diabetes. A random blood sugar of more than 200 points towards probable diabetes. Also do consult your psychiatrist and keep your follow ups regular.

Dear lybrate-user, don't develop anxiety over diabetes also. They must have tested grbs to see whether the anxiety is due to low sugar level. You did not have it. Grbs is done in emergency. It is a random test without actually keeping you on empty stomach (fbs) or 1 1/2 hours after food (ppbs). 143 mg/dl is quiet okay. Please continue with the treatment regularly. Don't go for emergency department. Try to learn some breathing exercise to postpone going to hospital.

Dear user I don’t know you tested after fasting or after eating, generally it’s 72-99 mg/99 (when fasting) and 140 2 hrs after eating. Fir more details you have to talk to me. When we are aware about our problem we are able to control but we have to control it in a proper way. You are too young and taking these tablets, it’s not good for your physical as well as your mental health. If you don’t want to take medication for life time then please wake up yourself, medicines are not a perfect solution for mental health, you have to work on your own, your will power, your mind and thoughts. But due to certain reasons if you are on antidepressants you have to take some extra care of yourself. I don���t know what are the circumstances under which you are taking medicines, I want to know the whole details about your disorder. But I must say don���t depend on the medicines and don���t make it a habit for future. You need counseling session for a better control on this disorder and medicines. Medicines are not the only solution, counseling is a best option for you so that you could better understand yourself and save yourself from the side effects of medicines. Please call and discuss your problem in detail and then i���ll be able to help you better. My contact no is mobile.
