Brief Answer:
Not necessarily that you have diabetes but you can get test done

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. If there were ants in the urine after some time following urination then it does not necessarily mean that you have diabetes. However the chances are high if you have diabetes in your family. You can get HbA1c test done and this will show if you have diabetes accurately. This can be done with any blood sample and gives blood sugar accurately.

Hope your query is answered.
Please do write back if you have any doubts.
