What is the risk of diabetes?

Question:
Hello doctor, I am 46 years old this year, I have signs of rapid weight loss and sometimes tired, I went to the hospital near my home, the test result is the blood glucose level is 18.7 H. The doctor asked me how many mmol/l is equivalent to that. Do I have diabetes, and how dangerous is it? Looking forward to consulting your doctor help me. Thank you very much doctor.

Answer:
Hello, according to the results you provided, you are at risk of diabetes. You should visit an endocrinologist directly as soon as possible to confirm the diagnosis and advise on treatment.
The unit of blood glucose is only mmol/l or mg/dl, here I provide the unit with H, it seems that this is not the correct unit.
Thank you for your question to vimec.com website. Best regards.
