Do heard or read about treating that disease type with "a new molecular therapy that uses targeted peptides and proteins to restore cellular function".

I recommend please do a Google search for the term "Peptide treatment", or the company named "Regenerative Cellular Therapy".

The fasting cut off for diagnoses is 125.  You are past that, and so you would qualify for a diagnosis of diabetes.

The good news is that the earlier you manage this the less likely you are to have complications and you can definitely slow the progression.

For sure you need to see a Dr.  You should be considering medications (probably metformin) and also losing weight if you are overweight, increasing activity / exercise levels and eating a lower carb diet to help get this under control.
