Im diabetic and today i woke up with a fasting of 167 and two hours later 199 i havent ate anything at all..?

Because you haven't eaten breakfast your metabolism slows and this actually increases your blood sugar - this is esp important in the morning when you have a dawn effect (where hormones affect your blood sugars) - if you take insulin / tablets then it could also be because you didn't take your insulin / tablets. Some people with diabetes need dialysis if their kidneys fail (constantly high blood sugars can damage your kidneys). Hope that helps xxx
