Diabetic

If you're just 150, you have no real need to worry, but you should be monitoring and beginning treatment. A normal person is normally around 100. I (as a diabetic) generally average around 130. 

My brother, a doctor, tells me that if his patients are in my age range (56) he's happy if they average 150. My Dad, at nearly 80, he would be happy with an average of 200. 

Note that the current philosophy is to use extreme treatment (if using insulin) of 4 to 8 shots a day to keep the numbers under VERY tight control. I'm not quite sure I agree with that approach, it sounds more like a means to make more money for the diabetes industry to me (BTW< I'm a nurse, my wife is, my mother and my brother a doc, so we're pretty well researched on the topic)

HOWEVER, the single biggest complaint I hear from diabetics is how SLOW the doctors are to "take it seriously" and start treatment. 

Sounds like you got hit with the same attitude. 

Hi,
150 is too high and considered diabetic.  I believed you measured the sugar level at the morning after not eating from the previous evening (otherwise the results are not valid).  150 should be treated.  At this point all you need is 1 pill a day and hope it won't deteriorate.  Make sure you measure the sugar level periodically (it can go to high levels without giving you any signs / signals / warnings).  Hope 1 pill at the evening will keep it to normal level.  The pill simply gives you the amount of insuline your body (pancreas) is not producing..... Above all: You MUST go on a proper strict diet and do sports sports sports....  Don't forget: Diabetic is a silent killer.  I wish you good health.
Best regards,

Not to be disagreeable, but at this time there are no "insulin pills." The various oral meds currently in use help the body better utilize the insulin that the body does make. 
As you say, diet is critical and the main culprit are carbohydrates. 

Of course refined sugar is deadly, and sugared soft-drinks are absolutely deadly. 

Exercise is also a major benefit to the diabetic (again, in agreement with our comments). 

As you say, it's a silent killer, and it is VERY rarely given as the "cause of death" (because it causes other systemic breakdowns) and so isn't perceived, like cancer or AIDS, as a major killer. 

The two major systems (among others) that diabetes attacks are kidneys and eyesight, so pay close attention to those. 

Fortunately, if properly treated, Diabetes is generally not life altering and you can (again, with treatment and care) continue your normal activities as you see fit (I spend all morning at the shooting range today, my first love.)

If necessary LEAN on the doctor to take action and give you the education you need to deal with the disease. A doctor, just like the guy who changes your tires, is being paid to provide you a SERVICE. If his service is NOT good, then it's time to demand better service, or find a different doctor (recalling that my brother is a doctor, and he agrees with this). There is also a huge amount of data on the 'net so you can study up on your own. The caveat, as with most things internet, is that there's a lot of bull and scare propaganda out there and you have to learn how to sift through the junk to find the pearls.

There's a unique supplement called liquid zeolites was put on the market a couple of years ago that has some remarkable testimonies for many, many serious conditions and diseases. It acts like a cage, trapping allergens and toxins and removing them safely from the body.
