Welcome to the group, vishnud. First of all, go to your Doctor and get yourself examined for Diabetes. You will have to go on medication as per Doctor's advice to control your blood sugar level. Fasting blood glucose above 125 comes in the diabetic range. But there may be other short-term factors also which may raise blood glucose temporarily. That is why it is advisable to go to Doctor to confirm if you are Diabetic. After that, you can focus on how to manage it with the help of group members in this Forum.

Before you go for medication,try some diet control measures.Have dinner before 8.00 pm and do not ear anything afterwards.Review carbohydrate content of your dinner and replace with foods that do not cause blood sugar spikes.For example cut down a roti or some rice with an egg.Include more legumes,greens and vegetables.Go for a walk for about 15 minutes after dinner.Good sleep helps.Sleep early.Settling for medicines should be the last resort.If your HbA1c result is good,then you have nothing much to worry.

If I were you, I would get to a doctor asap and get on medication and alter my diet so that I get my fasting atleast to the 110-120 in the first stage and PPBS to 180-160-140 before even thinking about stopping medicines. At these levels, you are doing more than to yourself not taking any medicines than any side effects of any medicines. Just my personal opinion.
