I fasted for 18 hours. Will that affect my blood test?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi, my blood sugar levels are high. According to the latest test report, fasting blood sugar is 190 mg/dL and postprandial is 340 mg/dL. I am already on medication, but my sugar levels are still very high.

Dear Sir or Mam, please let me know if I am diabetic, prediabetic, or non diabetic. I am attaching my test report. Please kindly tell me what PPBS and PLBS mean?
