Changing the way you receive healthcare.

• A1C: This test measures your average blood glucose for the past couple of months. It doesn’t require you to fast or drink a special liquid. If you have an A1C of 6.5% or more you have diabetes. If the A1C is more than 7 then urgent action is required to control diabetes in order to prevent complications
   
• Fasting plasma glucose (FBS): This diagnostic test requires you to fast for at least eight hours before the test. An FBS will test your fasting blood glucose levels. If your levels are 126 mg/dl or higher, you will be diagnosed with diabetes. FBS also indicates how good or bad your control is. 
    
• Random (casual) plasma glucose test (RBS): This is a blood test that can be done at any time. If the test reports a blood glucose of greater than or equal to 200 mg/dl, you will be diagnosed with diabetes. 

• Capillary blood glucose (CBS): is done at the visit to see the fluctuation in glucose levels. If it is more than 140 then diabetes targets are not being met. In older adults a more relaxed 180 is taken as a target.

• Lipid Profile: this test can be done fasting 9 to 14 hours or even random for us to monitor your progress. Lipid profile is used to evaluate your risk of heart attacks in future and to guide which medications are required to prevent heart attacks.
• Kidney tests: These include a creatinine, estimated Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and urine microalbumin. Together these 3 tests look at kidney function and risk of future kidney problems if any. Based on these tests a kidney protection plan is then initiated- which may include diet changes, control of A1C and blood pressure as well as medications to protect the kidneys.
