Hi, i had gone through your query and understood your concerns.

Sir, The normal blood sugar levels are 70-110mg/dl fasting, fasting 110-126 is pre diabetes. and more than 126mg/ dl is diabetic.

The postprandial (2hrs after food)values are Normal is less than 140; pre diabetes 140-200 and more than 200mg/dl. is diabetic.

Coming to 164, if it is fasting its diabetic and if it is postprandial it is pre diabetic.

Hope this guides you. For any other queries you can write to us. we will be happy to help you. Thank you.
