Although the disease usually starts in people under the age of 20, type 1 diabetes may occur at any age.
The disease is relatively uncommon, affecting 1 in 250 Americans. The condition is more common in whites than in blacks and occurs equally in men and women
Fasting blood sugar levels should be measured from 6 to 8 hours after eating. The measurement is milligrams of glucose per one-tenth liter (mg/dL) of blood:
70-100 - Normal.
100-125 - Impaired glucose tolerance / borderline.
126 and over for a 2 or 3 day period: Possible diabetes.
TYPE I
COMMON SIGNS & SYMPTOMS OF TYPE 1 DIABETES

Yes, 135 or something is kinda high. It would be prudent to have a doctor check for diabetes. At least then you would know.
In the meantime I would suggest you supplement with 5,000 IU per day vitamin D3. Research has shown that adequate levels of vitamin D can delay or even prevent diabetes onset.
Also avoid all soft drinks, sports drinks, fruit juices and vitamin water.
