Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
To control blood glucose apart from taking Insulin and tablets, dietary control and regular exercise are equally important. The reason blood gkucose goes up is because the food intake is high or there are foods which get converted to glucose quickly are more in your diet. Plus there needs to be a proper adjustment of dosage of the medicines being taken. Thanks.

Get your c-peptide test done after 8 hour fasting. C-peptode is a amino acid complex released when a molecule of proinsilin breaks down to insulin hence it is an indirect measurement of insilin. Normalrange is 0.5-2 ng/ml of blood. If your c-peptide is less than normal means insulin is less and indicates type 1 diabetes, if more than more insulin is produced as in type 2 diabetes.

Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query.

But there is no mention of current glucose levels (fasting & pp, hba1c%, lipid profile, bp readings, dietary pattern & extent of daily exercise. Without all the necessary information there is no way to suggest any medication or give any advise. Please understand...more

Dear lybrate-user,
the medication you are taking for diabetes are standard medication and if your sugar is controlled with it you should continue with it. For peripheral neuropathy good control is the best approach. For sexual problen best to consult a andorogynist. I will not be able to any suggest unani medicine.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the query. You have mentioned about having diabetes as well as depression. But there is no information on blood glucose, (fasting & pp), hba1c%, lipid profile, dosage of medications being taken, dietary details and extent of daily exercise. With out having all the necessary information, there is no way to advise. Problems with sexual performance are quite often seen as a complication of diabetes, particularly if blood glucose is not well controlled.more
