| Hi Jerry!
Self testing is always kind of "iffy" for making any kind of accurate determination of your condition.
Your Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) levels would indicate that you are not a Pre-Diabetic or any kind of diabetic.
The Doughnuts and Coke experiment, while placing a good load on your endocrine system, is flawed because you did not know how many carbohydrate grams you consumed, also the presence of the fat in the doughnuts prolongs the digestion of the sugar, finally the High-Furctose-Corn-Syrup in the Coke doesn't hit the endocrine system in the same way as straight glucose and takes longer to metabolize.
Do you have a family history of diabetes? How overweight are you (percentages or BMI numbers are fine no need to give us height/and weight). When you say that you are urinating more often, just how frequently and how much do you drink. (i.e., I'm an avid cyclist so I tend to over-hydrate and I pee more than "average" because I drink about a gallon of water and other water based drinks daily.)
Be cautious, you may sit before some MD that will be more than willing to just hand you a prescription for diabetic meds. If you don't need them don't take them, the side effects can be brutal.
When was the last time you had a complete physical exam by an MD? I will hazzard a guess that it has been some time. If I'm correct -- get to a doctor for a full physical exam.
