Diagnosis of PRE-DIABETES

To diagnose pre-diabetes, the doctor may perform one or more of the following tests:

  • Glycated hemoglobin (A1C) test: Calculates average blood sugar level for the past 2-3 months.
  • Fasting blood sugar test: Calculates blood sugar levels after an overnight fast (for atleast eight hours). A blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) will be considered as pre-diabetes.
  • Oral glucose tolerance test: Calculates fasting blood sugar level at empty stomach, followed by drinking of sugary liquid and blood sugar levels will be measured after 2 hours. A blood sugar level from 140 to 199 mg/dL (7.8 to 11.0 mmol/L) will be considered as pre-diabetes.

If you are diagnosed with pre-diabetes, your doctor may recommend further testing for total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and triglycerides yearly or more frequently.
