Endocrinology,DiabetesEndocrinology-DiabetesZyrexa can cause weight gain, which can lead to diabetes as well as elevated blood sugars. I follow the standard classification for diabetes: family history, fasting sugar below 100; 2-hour post-prandial sugar less than 140; above 140 to 180 impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes over 200. Please see your physician.
