Tests for diabetes

2023-10-05 11:50:49
Hi! I have some queries regarding glucose blood test / test for diabetes. From what I understand - there are 2 tests - fasting glucose test & random glucose. So, if my blood sample is taken for fasting glucose in the morning, can I go for random glucose test in the afternoon after my lunch or the next day? Apart from these tests, is there any other test? Thanks
