Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Get a glucose tolerance test done or an HbA1C test done.
2. Look for possible other causes of diabetes mellitus like endocrinopathies, which could have caused it.
3. If all are normal, check monthly once and then followup with regular exercise, diet control and six months checkup once.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
