I'm really surprised the vet found glucose in the urine and didn't immediately test her blood right then. Glucose is part of a chemistry not a complete blood count if sent to a lab. But they can easily check it with a glucose meter in the office, for an instant reading. I do agree the urinary tract problem could very well be the first sign of diabetes, this happens frequently. Remember, diabetes should be controlled, so it does not control you/her. Best wishes to you, it'll be okay.
