Hello,

Your husband is not a diabetes patient, and the first time his reading was 159 gm/dl. First, I want to say you that relax and don't need to worry. Before going to the final diagnosis need some further investigation like glycated hemoglobin or HbA1C test which is the average blood sugar level of last three months, and need some physical examination like BMI (body mass index of your husband).

Also, I want to advise to your husband that he may restrict his calorie in diet and starts lifestyle modification twenty minutes of a brisk walk. So kindly consult your general physician or endocrinologist for HbA1C.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Kumar Abhishek
