A sugar level of 600 is very high and dangerous. Though now 225, you need urgent diabetic evaluation and possible medication adjustment. Avoid sweets and high-carb food. Visit a physician immediately.

How long must a patient fast before the fasting test for diabetes?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My father has been having diabetes for the last 3 years but he never consulted any doctor. From the blood report we came to know that his sugar level is above 350. He is also having teeth sensitivity problems but the doctor said sugar must be reduced first, then only treatment can be done. In Dehradun I am unable to find any doctor for diabetes? Please help me.
