Hi doc I am 34 years old and was diagnosed with borderline type 2 diabetes 6 years back. The doctor suggested metmorphin 1000 mg once and all was well until a week back. I felt itchiness while passing urine and the foreskin looks chapped and white deposits are around foreskin and penis. I did random sugar check and the levels are between 250 to 290. I increased medicine dosage to 2 tabs a day and also avoided all sweet items. What should I do? Also I have a bicuspid aortic valve health condition for which I am taking concor cor 2.5 mg 1 tab daily.

Hello thanks for the query. I have seen the details and understand the concern. You should have been regularly checking the blood glucose, then this sudden realisation would not have occurred. Now as the glucose levels have gone very high, there is a need for upgrading the treatment. Another major issue seems to be your excessive weight, with a bmi of 33.15 kgs/sq meter you are having an excess of over 34 kgs (ideal body weight 80 kgs). This also affects glucose metabolism adversely as there is severe insulin resistance (ir). Hence now there is a need to upgrade the overall treatment, which includes looking at your dietary intake, extent of daily physical activity, fbg, pp & hba1c%, lipid profile and bp readings. Then upgrade the current treatment. So please come back in a private conversation with all the above mentioned details, so that I will be able to guide specifically and prescribe necessary drugs to achieve better glucose control. Thanks.

Hello do not increase tablets on your own. Take 1 tab only as your Dr. suggested. Itching of penis is due to high sugar. Sugar levels need to be controlled. I suggest you to take homeopathic treatment along with allopathic medicine. It helps to maintain sugar levels to normal and prevents complications. Once sugar levels are normal slowly we can cut off allopathic medicines. You can consult me online for homeopathic treatment. No side effects.
