Hello, Thanks for the query.
It appears you have uncontrolled diabetes. You are referring to HbA1c% of 9% I think. In a well controlled diabetic person FBG should be < 100 mg or closer to 100 mg, PP should be 150 to 170 mg & HbA1c% < 6.5%
Therefore there is a need to look at your overall treatment which includes drugs being taken, with their dosage, dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise and maintaining of normal body weight. We also have look at other details like lipid profile, BP...more

Mr Sooraj Kumar, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. Fasting glucose 140 mg and HbA1c% 9% are quite high. At your age FBG should be < 100 mg, PP 150 to 170 mg & HbA1c% < 6.5%. Therefore it is clear that there is need to upgrade the treatment for diabetes. Hence it is necessary to look at dietary pattern extent of daily exercise and present medication, lipid profile details. Thanks.
