Today, I received my blood test report, and my fasting blood sugar level is 107. This is the first time my sugar level has been high; two months ago, it was only 80. I am 30 years old and have been using some hormone medications for infertility over the past two months. What tests should I get done now, and does this mean I am diabetic?

I am 16 years old and my weight is 81 kg. I am a PCOS patient. I did a lipid profile test, and some values are slightly increased. I am attaching my report for reference. Please check and tell me if anything is serious. Also, my ESR is a bit high at 67, while the normal range is 0 to 30. Please tell me if this is anything serious?
