[|Human|] I am a 60 year old female, short and thin. I live in NYC, so I walk a lot. I limit my intake of sweets, meat, dairy and processed food In general. I have diabetes on both sides of my family. My recent check up said I have high cholesterol and sugar. It doesn t seem right to me, but my doctor did not test me for diabetes. Could diabetes result in high cholesterol and sugar? Thank you
[|AI|]  Hello there I have read through your question and would like to tell you that if you have diabetes running in your family then you have higher chances of having it. High blood sugar that is fasting sugar above 100 and post radial sugar above 140 is diagnostic of diabetes. But I would advise you to get an HBA1C test done to confirm the diagnoses. Also, high cholesterol levels can also be due to Diabetes, or It can be an isolated occurrence. If you have diabetes you may need to take oral hypoglycemics depending on the level of your blood sugar. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor.
