Yes eating before the test could result in false results.

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?

Recently, I had a diagnostic test done for insurance purposes. I was diagnosed with a fasting blood sugar of 164 and an HbA1c level of 9, and my insurance was rejected stating that I am diabetic. I would like to know more since no doctor opinion was taken?

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