Answer # 1 #

Diabetes is usually tested by using a blood glucose test. Normally, a blood sample is taken from your vein and sent to a pathology lab for analysis. There are different types of blood tests. You may be asked to fast overnight beforehand (fasting blood glucose test) or you may not need to prepare.
