Get her current status of diabetese.

Detailed Answer:
My dear,
Thanks for sending your query to us.
This is a raised reading of blood sugar.Since the reading is for last 120 days,for surgery,in my practice i get a current fasting or pp sugar done.If this reading is normal,go agead with surgery.If not normal,get sugar control first as it is a non emergency surgery and chances of complications increase with uncontrolled blood sugar.
Any further query in this regard, please do get back to me.
