Is there anybody to answer my question ?

[dipdia]

My exact question is there are predictions that pre diabetes can progress to diabetes in a decade, Is there any prediction like that for non diabetes to diabetes?

[dipdia]

just last clarification,there is any possibilities that a  non diabetic can become diebetic and if so how long does it take?

"But to measure Diabetes generally they go for Fasting blood sugar..correct?"
Fasting is one of several diabetes tests. If your fasting levels are above normal, to verify diabetes most doctors follow-up with an A1c test. Since your fasting levels fell into a normal range is up to YOU if you wish to do a follow-up.

Isn't significant that my blood sugar is normal in fasting blood sugar test.?

"It cam 82. It is normal correct?"
Normal fasting ranges are 60/70 to 99 mg/dl.

" Can I rull out high blood sugar i.e. diabetes.?"
Most likely. However, to truly rule out diabetes ask to get an A1c [HA1c,HgbA1c] test. It measures your blood sugars over the past 2-3 months. A fasting test measures only at the time of the test, does not reveal what your blood sugars were 3 hours, the day, or week, or month prior.

Hi Wave,

I got my blood sugar test result (non fasting) today. It cam 82. It is normal correct? Can I rull out high blood sugar i.e. diabetes.?

Go see a doctor and get tested. Frequent urination is one sign of type 2 diabetes. It also could be a sign of a disease you do not feel until more severe such as bladder or urinary tract infection, an enlarged prostrate if male, vaginitis if female, or possibly a tumor. Also comes to mind is from drinking excessive amounts of fluids. Good luck -
