I think that 'normal' blood sugar numbers can probably vary from one person to another. I had a fasting blood glucose about a year and a half ago because I was having symptoms of diabetes (extreme fatigue and brain fog when I eat carbs, and some symptoms of neuropathy). I'm also overweight, and there has been some diabetes in the family. So I was really expecting to be told that I was diabetic, but no, the numbers came back 'normal.' In spite of that, the only way I can get relief of the symptoms (and lose weight, slowly) is to avoid carbs! So I strongly suspect that my 'normal' blood sugar numbers are lower than what the doctors have listed as a normal range. You have to listen to symptoms, as well as get test results. If your symptoms contradict the test results, then better listen to the symptoms!!
