Hello.
Your glucose level is in normal range. You must also a test known as HB A1C which will be normally about 7% if u have symptom like increased urination or increased appetite or increased urge to drink or recent increase in weight and its also important to look for last 4 months of sugar control . Liver disease is associated with pale color of stools if u are suffering from jaundice but alone on this symptom it's difficult to tell. You must do liver function tests for diagnosis. Hope that answer the question. Thanks
