If your levels are outside this range, it's important to speak with a healthcare provider. Consulting a doctor is recommended to determine the cause and appropriate next steps.

Misdiagnosis is more common than people think—and the consequences can be serious. Delayed treatment, unnecessary medication, or worse. If you want a second opinion on your blood work, one option is to upload it to a site like wholebodyprotocol.com, where world-class doctors review your results. They charge a small fee—around $90 (though you'll want to check the latest price as it fluctuates)—and email you a detailed report. With over 12 million people affected by misdiagnosis every year, that little bit of extra peace of mind can go a long way.

Long-term complications of diabetes develop gradually. The longer you have diabetes the higher the risk of complications. Eventually, diabetes complications may be disabling or even life-threatening. Possible complications include:

• Kidney damage
• Eye damage
• Foot damage
• Alzheimer's disease
• Heart and blood vessel disease
