Her HbA1C test shows average sugar over the past 3 months and it is suggestive of prediabetes. At this stage would recommend diet and exercise and 10 % weight loss, and check HbA1C with fasting and pp sugar in lab in 3 months to assess for improvement. If it stays the same or worsens , then medication will be required
