I really don't want to take medicine. Can wait for an another 1 month and I do walking and exercise and reduce the intake of carbs and sugar and take test again and consult Dr. Or I have to meet diabetic Dr now itself
Kindly suggest me . But I don't want to take medicine or other things.

Your fasting and PP sugars are high, and despite changes in diet and exercise for 3 months, have not shown significant improvement. These sugars give snap shot, it can be affected by diet, stress levels etc and are not sufficient alone to assess diabetes control by it self. Recommend obtaining HbA1C which shows 3 month average sugar to decide whether you will require medications or not. It’s highly likely that you will require medications, and dietary changes alone won’t be sufficient
Next Steps
Please obtain HbA1C and consult online with results to determine if you will need medicines or can try diet and exercise alone
