Is Fatigue Feeling After Eating A Symptom Of Diabetes?

Diabetes
Detailed Answer:
I follow what you are saying here.
You seem to have developed type 2 diabetes. With these type of blood glucose levels, endocrinologists tend to offer only lifestyle modification as a first treatment option.
So essentially, healthful eating and increased physical activity should help keep this in check.
If you are overweight, losing 5 to 7% of body weight will also be immensely useful in reversing this problem.
When I see someone like you in my practice, I typically order the following blood tests in addition to a detailed physical examination:
CBC (Complete Blood Count, also known as Hemogram; includes Hemoglobin, WBC and Platelet counts)
Electrolytes (Sodium and Potassium in particular)
Liver function tests (SGOT , SGPT, Albumin, Bilirubin, Alkaline Phosphatase)
Kidney function tests (BUN, Creatinine)
TSH
Free T4
Anti Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO) antibodies
Anti Thyroglobulin antibodies 12 hour Fasting Lipid profile
Urine albumin to Creatinine Ratio
None of these tests require any fasting and can be done at any time of the day
