High blood sugar: An elevated level of the sugar glucose in the blood. Also called hyperglycemia. High blood sugar is a finding in a number of conditions, most notably diabetes mellitus. Elevated blood glucose leads to spillage of glucose into the urine (glucosuria) so that the urine is sugary. (The term diabetes mellitus means sweet urine.)
HbA1C differs from normal hemoglobin in that it has been bound to a sugar molecule. The risk of this is elevated when your blood sugar levels are elevated. The level of HbA1C estimates your average blood sugar levels over the past 90 days. The test can be performed regardless of recent food intake. A high HbA1C level is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
