If you are willing to work on this problem (and it sounds like you are) then the only way to find out about
your Diabetes is by testing. I'd go further and suggest you need to step it up to several times a day... especially 2 hours after each meal or at the very least keep it to twice a day and stagger when you test e.g. Fasting and 2 hours after breakfast one day, fasting and 2 hours after lunch the next and so on.
Your Doctor may be satisfied with your numbers, but I wouldn't be. I suggest your 2 hours after eating should be down to 140-150. My attitude to this is that the Doctor is part of YOUR diabetes health care team... some Doctors may not respond well to this, but in my experience if they see that you have stepped up, armed yourself with knowledge and are taking a proactive approach to helping yourself they usually come around.
The military really needs to take better care of its own and if he is unwilling to work with you I'd kick up a fuss.
