I think you asked this question before with a slightly different statement. Diabetes mellitus is ruled out with normal blood test and fasting glycemia 5.2 mmol/L and 2 hour postprandial glycemia of 5.3 mmol/L. Glucose in the urine could be lab error because it is a chemical test using reagent on the stick, not a quantitative test. If glucosuria is confirmed, kidney problem needs to be ruled out.
