21 year old female. Doctor tested my glucose last week. It was at 184. I tested last night at 272 before eating and 232 right before bed. Should I be worried?

At what time did you check your sugar level? Without that it is difficult to decide about the diagnosis of diabetes. How it was tested by glucometer or by lab? The two night readings are absurd. Without any drug the sugar level won't come down. Mention about your age and your weight
