Diabetes tests: A fasting blood sugar of 107 does not make strict criteria for diabetes. The level of 147 is not helpful as it was not fasting. You could get another blood test called HgA1C. If the level is greater than 6.5 you have diabetes. To protect yourself exercise 30-60 minutes at least 3-5 days a week and reduce your intake of simple sugars and carbohydrates in general. Lose weight if you are heavy.

Possibly: A fasting blood sugar greater than 100mg/dl shows you are at risk for diabetes. Your doctor will confirm this with a 2part test that can be done in his office.Meanwhile healthy eating with portion control with having more vegetables on your plate than starchy foods combined with exercise will help
