Urgent issue about my Diabetes Type 2
I have done hba1c test from Agilus diagnostic on 6 June 2026, it was 5.8 (FBS - 106) . Again on 21 July 2026, I did Hba1c test from Agilus diagnostic and result is 5.5 and FBS - 115. I doubt these both results because of below mentioned points :-
1. I am diabetic type 2 patient from last 4 years.
2. I have taken treatment only once in last 4 years when my Hba1c was peak at around 11.7 in June 2025. I have taken medicines from June 2025 to October 2025 and stopped medicines when my Hba1c was 5.5 and FBS - 98 as per doctor's advice.
3. From June 2025 ( When my treatment was started ) and till now, I am on very strict diet as required for diabetics mangement.
4. But from last 1 month, I think my symptoms has started showing again like urge for pee every 1-2 hours, urge for pee in midnight, itching on foot. Etc.
Please help me out about what should I do next because test results are not matching with symptoms.
Your HbA1c values are good â 5.5-5.8 is normal to pre-diabetic range. FBS 115 is slightly high but not alarming. The frequent urination with these sugar levels is not typical of uncontrolled diabetes â get a urine routine culture done to rule out UTI, and check post-meal sugar (PPBS 2 hrs after meal). The labs are likely correct. Continue strict diet.
Next Steps
Consult me on Practo with PPBS and urine report for a complete review.

I understand your concern. The good thing is that an HbA1c of 5.5% is reassuring and suggests your average sugar has been well controlled over the last 2–3 months. However, your symptoms should not be ignored—they may be due to post-meal sugar spikes, a urinary infection, or a fungal infection, even if the HbA1c is normal.
I would recommend checking fasting and 2-hour post-meal sugars for a few days (or using a CGM if possible) and getting a urine routine/culture. Please consult your diabetologist with these reports before making any changes to your medication.

Best is to check not only your Fasting blood sugar , but also post lunch and pre & post dinner blood sugars . Make a chart for a week and then consult a doctor .
