Answer:

A fasting blood sugar test will be ordered.

Explanation:

A fasting blood sugar test or a glycated hemoglobin test is ordered in such situations. Additionally, tests to determine the insulin level as well as an ophthalmic investigation to determine diabetic retinopathy are ordered. Blood sugar level less than 100 mg/dl is classified as normal. A person is pre-disposed to diabetes if his blood sugar level is between 100-125 mg/dl.

A confirmed case of diabetes mellitus will have a fasting blood sugar level, 126 mg/dl and higher. Insulin administration and a proper management of diet are essential in managing the condition.
