Hello lybrate-user. Your Hb1ac is 7.1 which is high. Your fasting blood sugar is also quite high. Considering your age it doesn't seem that it is maturity onset. I would suggest that you get a lipid profile too. You have to take medicines for a few Months and after that it can be stopped if your Hb1ac return s to normal and you are able to maintain your blood sugar level with diet control. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact.
