Am I suffering from diabetes?

[cameron_hh]

I am a 55 years old male. I have a history of type 2 diabetes running in my family. My weight is under control and I exercise regularly. Four years ago my blood sugar was 6.5 mg/dl and now I have brought it down to 6.2 mg/dl. Indian doctors do not consider me diabetic but a French doctor says I have type 2 diabetes. Can you tell me which out of this is correct? What precautions should I take, other than avoiding sugar? Is it possible to correct my sugar level through diet and exercise?

Is this the same doctor doing the testing? Do you have a doctor you see regularly?

You need to get another opion to see what the out come would be.

I think the reason he has all these people telling him this is that he has searched for other opinions. you need answers rather than opinions. I've been told if your sugar levels are higher than 6 you are a diabetic.
