Your values suggest prediabetes. Lifestyle changes are key now. Repeat HbA1c in 3 months and monitor Fasting Glucose regularly.

Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...

Take a HbA1c Test (Hemoglobin A1c) Test or Take a FBS (Fasting Blood Sugar )Test Test

How long does it take to go from prediabetes to diabetes?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My daughter who is 11 years old was diagnosed last month with prediabetes and hypothyroidism. This month the doctor asked for a blood test and a follow up. Should I get her HbA1C test done along with fasting and postprandial sugar tests or only one of them? Which test will help to check if there is any improvement in her sugar levels? The doctor has asked only to do TSH, LFT, and lipid profile and meet him. Since she is on 25mg Eltroxin medication, should I also check her sugar levels while doing the blood test? Please advise.
