No, tests like HBA1C and Glucose fasting help in detecting diabetes.

Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...

Take a ALDOLASE - SERUM Test or Take a TOTAL LEUKOCYTE COUNTS AND DIFFERENTIAL LEUKOCYTE COUNTS(TLC & DLC) Test

Will drugs show in a blood test?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am experiencing dryness and tingling sensations in my palms and feet, which sometimes itch. I also feel tingling in my hands while sleeping and notice some liquid dripping from my fingers. My nerve conduction test report came back normal, but I have vitamin D deficiency. Please suggest what additional tests I should undergo to identify the exact cause of these symptoms, along with any treatment recommendations. Thanks in advance.
