The results you mentioned fall in the pre diabetes category. Unless, you have achieved those numbers with the help of anti diabetic medications. So, if you're not a diabetic, go ahead and do an ogtt may be once a year. If you do have diabetes, continue the same line of treatment and go for regular follow up. Also, it will be advisable to do hba1c at a good lab.
