Sugar Report
Hi, i got sugar test done for my mother few days back, the report is uploaded. Today she went to a doctor to consult about the report and the doctor said that she does not have sugar after looking at the report. But the report shows that the reading is above what is expected. Can you please suggest whether she has sugar or not and should i consult a new doctor.

Hi I can understand your concern. I checked out your report yes before food sugar are slightly increase. But need not worry about medication for being pre diabetic.
It is normal to have such kind of slight increase in sugar which says that the patient needs to to maintain their diet and also start doing few exercises. Recheck the the same sugar value after one month depending upon the value we can decide whether any medication need to be started or not
