Is 79 Blood Sugar Normal?
I just had a fairly large lunch; 3/4 th's of a frozen pizza a full calorie soda and about half a cup of baked mac n cheese I waited a half hour to an hour and checked my blood sugar (now I don't normally ever check my blood sugar I was more or less just playing with my moms testing stuff) but it was at 79, is that normal at all?

hi. if your random blood sugar is 79 then its ok. but after half an hour of taking food its low. but cant say conclusively. you should go for fasting and post prandial 2 hour blood sugar. if needed then you can go with oral GTT. but need to go for investigation. it may be normal may not be. so go to your doctor and investigate properlyt.
