Dear Sir,
I strongly suggest you to go for a 3 interval Glucose tolerance test which will prove beyond doubt about the stage of diabetes. Based on this report we can start treatment and that will be more accurate.
Regarding urine sugar, Its quite unreliable. for the values you have mentioned ++++ does not correlate.
I suggest you to go by blood sugar readings.
Wishing you the best!
