Do I have diabetes?

My wife checked my blood sugar level last night after a big meal and 2 drinks---it was 159. She checked it this morning on an empty stomach and it was 141.  Do I have diabetes?

Probably not. Since you had alcohol the night before it's not an accurate test. But we couldn't tell you anyway, if you're concerned see your Dr.

If you repeat the test again in a week and have similar results then you might start to worry about it.
