I checked my blood sugar level in empty stomach. The glucometer shows 105 and today it shows 113. I doubt I have diabetes, I found few symptoms like ants after I urinate and feeling hungry. What should I do to keep my sugar level normal. Am I a diabetic patient or still is there a chance. Im 23. Please help.
