Hi and thanks for using this panel for your health worries.
I am so sorry to hear about what you have been experiencing.
Your symptoms raise the suspicion of diabetes mellitus. Also, the value of 38mmol/L is too high to be considered a normal blood sugar reading.
I will suggest that you meet your doctor. He will investigate and try to confirm the suspicion of you having diabetes mellitus.
Hope this helps.....Wish you a good health
