Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. I do not see any very low glucose levels at all. Hypoglycemic (low glucose) level is when blood glucose goes < 70 mg. Then that may cause certain symptoms, like mild shivering, uneasiness, blurred vision, clouded thinking, giddiness sweating etc. The levels shown are in fact fairly high particularly after food ones.
Another aspect metformin hardly causes low glucose. If at all any drug contributes to that then it is Glimiperide....more

If the creatinine rise is due to diabetic kidney disease it is not completely reversible. She will need to alter her diabetic medicines though.

Mr. Lybrate-user, before I can talk about your diet and daily work out, it appears your blood sugar is totally out of control. If that is not controlled then diet and exercise are not going to help. First is drug treatment has to be improved, so tha fasting is around 100 mg, pp 150 to 160 mg and hba1c% <7. Then only rest of the things to be looked at. So please see that your sugar levels are brought under control. Otherwise you are inviting long term complications of diabetes.

Hi
as you said you are diabetic. Since last 4-5 years. N your sugar levels r with in normal range. You suffer only constipation or say hard stool. Which could be one of the side of antidiabetic drugs. So wat you need to do is. Eat more fibers in the evening. And use powder lactifibre with milk or syp. Lactulose with normal water at night before bed.

Mr. lybrate-user , You have mentioned about the drugs being taken for diabetes, but no dosage. There is no mention about fasting, PP glucose level and HbA1c%, so it is not clear whether diabetes is well controlled at all. At your age it is very essential to achieve a very strict blood glucose control with fasting closer to 100 mg, PP 150 to 160 mg & HbA1c%<6.8. If not then you are inviting long term complications of diabetes much early. As regards dietary advice, unless all the details are known...more
