Hi
If you mean a fingerprick test, I think some pharmacies can do that - just ask.
If you mean HBA1c, I think you will need a test at a health centre.
If you are looking to be diagnosed as diabetic, you need to see a doctor.
You don't say what your circumstances are, or even what country you're in right now!
Cheers

Great, thank you, living in Benijofar spain. The finger prick test is what I was looking for and the pharmacy in Benijofar don't do it.

You could buy one from Amazon es, https://www.amazon.es/monitor-glucosa-sangre-Angel-reactivas/dp/B0855TXNTX?tag=cstareg0f-21
Or they may sell the kits in the pharmacy but they might be more expensive.
