Hi lybrate-user. There is no correlation between the sugars and hba1c. Hba1c of 6 if correct is too controlled and he may be facing hypoglycemic attacks. Need dose adjustment of medications. And creatinine is a but high may be landing in diabetic nephropathy. You can consult me online for diabetes dose adjustment and other issues. Thank you.

Hi Doctor, I am a 53 year old male, insulin dependent diabetic and a hypertensive. To add to this I am having BI polar disorder. Sugar control is average or below. BP under control. Now my medicines Lantus 20 units at Bedtime, Novorapid 10 units before lunch Glycigon 80, two times a day, two tablets each time For BP Olmin 40 LN Bloc 20 pantoprazole with Domstal one time a day As far as Bipolar problem is concerned I am cleared by psychiatrist to take all the above with the medicines he prescribed. I consider this a sensitive matter. I am always in stress because of my Job, I am the GM or second in command of a large turnover construction company. My morning sugar is between 95 tp 110, but post breakfast after 2 hours is 225. After taking my lunch I take novorapid 10 units hence for few hours my sugar drops to normal range. Again in the evening it when Novorapid effect is gone it climbs to 250-275. Remains like that perhaps till I sleep after taking Lantus 20 units, again in the morning it is normal. HB1C today's test shows a reading of 7.0. What should I do to take this reading to 6.0.

Secondly, I must commend the detailed manner in which you have described your present status. Thirdly, you have managed your diabetes pretty well.

I am sorry to hear about your disabilities after the above knee amputation and osteoarthritis of the other knee. Weight gain in this situation is due to severe reduction in physical activity. To some extent you can compensate by exercising your arms, abdominal muslces and back muscles systematically. To control your sugars better you can try the following
