He is pre diabetic. My blood sugar has tested in that range recently. It can be controled with diet. My doc says I don't need meds yet. I have to watch the carbs and sugar is a carb. Eat lots of vegtables and exercise, of course. Get the book South Beach Diet. You can get it on Amazon.com for 5 cents plus 3.99 shipping. You don't have to use that diet, but you can learn a lot about carbs and how they work on your body in that book. It is written by a doctor. You can also get the book at your library.
You blood sugar will change every 1/2 hour. My doctor gave me a tester so I can see how I'm doing. Even if you fast for 12 hours it all depends on what you eat the night before. I can have a fast test of 143 and in the doctor's office it can be 88 without a fast. What really is important is the average.
Stay away from white flour. Eat lots of fiber. Watch the fruit too. Stay away from juice.
I don't know anything about the liver. His doc should put him on cholesterol meds ASAP.
Good Luck, I'll be curious to see what happens.
