Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thank you for your question in HCM. In my opinion your all reports are good except fasting and post prandial sugars. Normal individual should have FBS less than 90, and PPBS less than 140. It is said to be diabetic if FBS is more than 126 and PPBS more than 200. FBS between 90-126 and PPBS between 140-200 is said Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT). IGT is a state in which person is not fully diabetic but high chances of becoming diabetic in future. So better to start preventive mathods like sugar free diet, diet control and regular exercise. Recheck this after 1 month. Now a days HbA1c olis a good marker for DM. It shows last 3 months average sugar. So you can also go for HbA1c.
