Brief Answer: Follows. Detailed Answer: Dear Sir , Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX Well looking into your query I will like to tell you that your report of blood sugar is definitely not in normal limits . Your HbA1c is in higher range . Its not in the diabetes range but in pre diabetes level . Life style modification will be the best way to deal with this . Avoiding sugary foods , losing weight , doing regular exercise , eating whole grains and low glycemic foods will help you control this . No medications will be advisable as if now . You should repeat these tests after 1 month because one reading is never reliable . we need to confirm this . Other thing is your vitamin D is very low . You need to take Vitamin D 60,000 IU weekly for 12 weeks then once monthly to correct this deficiency . Take care. Dr Shruti
