Sorry, none of us here are doctors and they are the only ones who can diagnose.
However, you might like to look at this link. There is a table about half way down which has all the figures usually used for diagnosing diabetes or not. I don't know if your post prandial reading was from a glucose challenge test but usually, if there are no symptoms the fasting glucose test is supposed to be repeated
A figure of 110mg/dl is below the 'cut off' for diabetes but within the area of pre diabetes (as is 160mg/dl at 2 hours on a glucose challenge test)
