Am I diabetic? Should I start medication

2023-08-22 17:44:29
My Hba1c has gone up from 6.8 to 7.2 to 7.3 in December, March and August respectively. Glucose from 149 to 156 to 162 mg. Am I diabetic? Should I have to start on regular medication? I have been trying to keep it low with ayurvedic medicine, walking, diet changes, meditation
