Diabetes is diagnosed with blood sugar tests (fasting glucose, HbA1c). Urine sugar may give a clue but is not confirmatory. Please consult with a doctor for proper diabetes testing.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a Glucose Fasting and PP Test Test or Take a HbA1c Test (Hemoglobin A1c) Test

As per my blood report, GHb (HbA1C) is 10.3. Does this mean I am diabetic? Can it be reduced? I have never had any symptoms of diabetes.

Can I have a blood sugar test during periods?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have recently done a blood test, and my report shows a fasting blood glucose of 286 mg/dl and postprandial glucose of 393 mg/dl. Please suggest how I can control this by managing my diet and doing exercise. Which foods should be avoided?
