Mr. Lybrate-user kumar, hba1c% of greater than 6.5%, means diabetes is confirmed. This needs appropriate treatment with drugs, diet and exercise. Only when a person is in pre-diabetes state (fbs 108 to 125 mg, pp 141 to 199 mg/100 ml & hba1c% 5.9 to 6.4), it can be controlled with strict dietary control and exercise and weight management. Once confirmed diabetes is there then drug treatment plus lifestyle modification is a must. It means you need to initiate immediate treatment. Thanks.
