Do you have pre-diabetes fasting glucose tests range from 98 to 114?

The latest medical information I have says that normal fasting blood glucose levels should be less than 100. I'd say it's time to try diet and exercise, even if you don't have a history of Diabetes in your family. Your local diabetes association chapter can hook you up with some nutrition information, or you can use on online search engine.

What diagnostic tests are used to confirm diabetes?
There are several blood tests that can diagnose diabetes. The most common is a fasting blood glucose test, where the glucose level is measured after at least eight hours of fasting. The blood glucose can be measured without fasting, but it can only diagnose diabetes, not prediabetes. The oral glucose tolerance test monitors how a body responds to an influx of glucose. After fasting for a least 8 hours, blood glucose levels are measured before and every 30-60 minutes after the ingestion of a glucose beverage for three hours. A urine test for high levels of glucose and ketones can help diagnose diabetes, but these results are not enough on their own.
Which of these tests are most affected if the patient is not fasting?

Do you fast for liver function tests?
It is considered best to fast but necessary.AnswerSupposed to be a 12 hr fast - except water or juicesThe above answer is wrong.Water is the ONLY thing that you can drink to satisfy the fasting criteria...8 hrs should be adequate.Liver function tests do not require fasting since the tests are not affected one way or the other.Juices generally contain sugars that affect other testing (like glucose). Lipid panels are often preferred in the fasting state since eating before the tests can affect the tests such as triglycerides, etc. Ask your doctor when the tests are ordered whether fasting is needed.
To confirm diabetes what type of tests doctors do?
