welcome to hcm.
there is nothing to be panic. check his fasting blood sugar levels and postprandial sugar levels hopefully he might not be a diabetic. if you still have doubt that he might be in a pre diabetic state check his hba1c levels... now a days it is becoming a diagnostic test. hope this explains
