My RBS in the blood report is 182. Do I have diabetes? Can you explain this and tell me if it can be reduced?

A random blood sugar of 182 is high and may indicate diabetes or prediabetes. You need to get a fasting blood sugar and HbA1c test to confirm. Avoid sweets and refined carbs until then. Please consult a doctor.

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

Are there ways to trick blood test results?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My blood sugar levels are not controlled according to my recent reports. My fasting blood sugar is 125, postprandial is 279, and HbA1c is 9.2. I am currently taking Exterm GM Forte as my medication. Please advise me on what I should do next.

Sir my father tested his blood on 2 April at morning 11:00 am after having breakfast and the blood report claims to 140. I am so worried and I do not want my father to fall ill so please do something.
