Diabetic? Could this be type1
Male 26
sedentary lifestyle , no smoke or drink , no covid infection ,vaccinated , no known diseases
in my annual health checkup last year in june 2021 my Hba1c was 6.0 and fasting sugar 101
today my fasting sugar was 110(12hours fasting).
and my RBS 2.5 hrs after meal was 181.
my Hba1c was 6.3.
hence hba1c increased 0.3 in 8 months .
also 2 days before this exam i had too much sweets and potatoes and poori (literally like 250g pack of sweets at dinner) and after dinner during night i was urinating often so i got strange idea to check my sugar using glucometre and it came at 246.
again after that night ,next night after pizza as dinner it stayed at 201 in glucometre ( 2 hrs later)
today after breakfast ( light veg sandwich) RBS was 181.
am i full blown diabetic.
could this be type 1.
