Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
Your two-hour plasma glucose 261 mg/dl (i.e. >200 mg/dL) during an oral glucose tolerance test. You are diabetic as you fulfill the Criteria for the Diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus(International Diabetes Federation ).
I would suggest you also to undergo Hb A1C to have the base-line value before starting treatment. A1C > 6.5% warrant the diagnosis of DM .
