Detailed Answer:
That’s good if you maintain a healthy lifestyle. But still it’s advisable to get these basic tests done along with HBA1c to rule out any underlying issue.
There are high possibilities that these tests will turn out normal but still with these group of symptoms after 60 yrs of age evaluation should be done.
I hope this information will guide you properly.
