Hi, I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.

The blood sugar level you have mentioned is higher to normal. At first diabetes is diagnosed not by single value, but fasting and postprandial level. If they are high, we go for HbA1c value which gives sugar level for the last three months. If that value is higher, first control is tried by diet and exercise. when not controlled even after 2 months then we go with tablets.
There is nothing like vaccine.
You easily control with tablets.

Hope this guides you. For any other queries you can write to us. we will be happy to help you. Thank you.
