Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
I have gone through the reports you have mentioned.
You are having impaired glucose tolerance.
And treatment for this is asthma follows.
1. Strict anti diabetic diet. So consult dietician and plan your anti diabetic diet.
2. Loose weight if you are obese.
3. Start aerobic exercise like running, cycling, swimming etc.
4. Start metformin (glycomet) 250 mg once a day or half tablet twice daily.
Do all these for 1 monthl and get done repeat FBS (fasting blood sugar) and PPBS (post prandial blood sugar).
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
