Getting tested
If you have symptoms of diabetes or are overweight, your doctor or nurse might send you to a lab to get a blood test called an HbA1c test. The HbA1c test can measure the average levels of glucose in your blood from the past three months.
If your blood glucose levels are too high, this means you will most likely be diagnosed with diabetes.
If your glucose levels are high, but not high enough to be diagnosed with diabetes, you might be diagnosed with pre-diabetes. Pre-diabetes is exactly what it sounds like - it means you almost have diabetes, and you need to make lifestyle changes to live healthier to reduce your blood glucose levels. Review your diet, try to eat healthier, cut back on alcohol, and get more exercise. Your doctor will organise the test to be repeated in 3-6 months time.
