Hello lybrate-user nothing to worry. Just let me if your father has any diabetic symptoms. For instance hungry, thursty, wound healing, swelling on legs or frequent urination. If you say" no. Then your father allright. If still you have any doubts contact me online

Lybrate-user, if fasting blood glucose is 126 mg and more, ppbs 200 mg and more and hba1c % 6.5 and more, then it is confirmed diabetes. Only in that case drug treatment is required. So get his current complete blood check up for diabetes. If above criteria are met, then treatment is needed. Otherwise diet control and regular exercise as well as weight control will help. But it appears he is over weight. His ideal body weight should be about 64 kgs. Thanks.
