Hello,

You have a strong family history diabetes.
Your Fasting blood sugar is high.
Do a PPBS and HbA1c for confirmation.
To control the ear infection you should keep your blood sugar under control.
The neck and shoulder pain may be due the referred pain from the ear infection.
Myalgia may be due to hyperglycemia.
