How does a doctor differentiate between type 1 diabetes and type 2…?

Also, are fasting blood sugar levels an accurate diagnostic test because i heard people with diabetes type 1 can have normal blood sugar levels from fasting but not after eating… is that true?
I know type 1 makes no insulin and type 2 makes little insulin but how does a doctor know? Are blood sugar levels higher in type 1 then in type 2? Is there a blood test to determine it?

what are the different between fasting blood sugar and fasting plasma sugar?

where to refer the latest level of normal sugar level where both blood sugar and plasma sugar level are stated?

Is the normal range for blood sugar between 4 and 6?

No, I don’t suffer from diabetes but am wondering whether someone who has a severe case – let’s say, readings in double digits – has a different “normal” range.
