the true test is a A1C blood test...it tests the blood sugar for a 90 day period...for jaundice better let your DR test for it...urine tests are for home testing [and inaccurate] not diagnosing... if u or friend has a finger stick meter dont eat after 8 pm...BS should be under 125 at 8 am the next day

Urinalysis can detect Diabetes Mellitus using the urine strip. Urine chemical examination is a screening test for Diabetes and Proteinuria. Not jaundice. Jaundice may be caused by Hepatis virus or Liver disease. You can find out the reasons of jaundice with laboratory exams such as Hepatitis B surface antigen, SGPT, Bilirubin.
