Every parameter of blood sugar has its own importance.Fasting blood sugar indicates your calory intake in dinner and its utilization.PP blood sugar suggests your sugar status after 2 hrs of meals.Random blood sugar gives you information about sugar level at that particular time and HbA1c gives you idea about your average blood sugar in last 3 months.

It is better to take a consultation with a Dr. as your symptoms may be due to various causes. Fibromyalgia could be one reason.

Recently I have started taking telista ch 40 in the morning and telplus in the evening along with novastat 10 mg. earlier it is only telplus 40 mg morning dose. Due to increased bp and cholesterol levels the above addition s are made. I am feeling breathlessness in the evening hrs. Is it due to the side effects.

It is not due to side effects of the drug. I would recommend you to take an ecg and 2d- echo for your complaints and check your bp regularly. I would recommend you to to stop taking the evening dose of telplus and change over to inzit 4 mg at night if your bp is high and continue novastat.
