Your random blood glucose is normal. However it gives only snap shot of your sugars and it’s not adequate to diagnose diabetes.
HbA1C shows average glucose levels for the past 3 months and is the gold standard to diagnose diabetes. You have mentioned your level was high, so what was the level?
Next Steps
Please check HbA1C test or respond with its report and check fasting glucose levels to confirm diagnosis of diabetes or prediabetes
