My father just had major surgery and after the hospital said
he was a diabetic. But I’m a diabetic and have checked his
bloodsugar at home from time to time and it has alway’s been
normal under 100. At the hospital it hasn’t been higher than
120 after a meal and 70-80 before so what’s up?

Sometimes illness, especially in the elderly can cause diabetic symptoms, also it could be related to certain medications that he may be on. I would talk to his doctor or nurse next time you are at the hospital, just to get clarification.
