Diabetes is a condition which is characterised by blood glucose levels which are more than normal.A blood sugar level less than 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L) is normal. A reading of more than 200 mg/dL (11.1 mmol/L) after two hours means you have diabetes

Take a FIBROSIS-4 (FIB-4) INDEX FOR LIVER FIBROSIS Test or Take a AUSTRALIAN ANTIGEN (HBSAG) TEST Test
