Hello, thanks for the query.
The glucose levels have come down because of medication plus dietary control (if that is being done) plus regular exercise (again if you are doing it). If you stop the medication the glucose levels will again shoot up. Ideally when on appropriate treatment the glucose should be as follows: fasting < 100 mg, pp 14 mg or so. Hba1c% < 6.50%. So please continue the medication as advised plus do follow diet control and regular exercise. Thanks.

Hello this practising geriatrician diabetes setting at younger age ie <35 years of age, tend to respond good to drugs at the start and in the later part, the insulin reserve will be low
would advise you to do c peptide, tsh and hba1c and creatinine if c peptide levels are low, would be better to add long acting insulin as an add on agent
need some more test to rule out other differentials for his symptoms like tiredness.

Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query.
Fasting & pp glucose levels are very high, showing diabetes is not controlled at all. It means current treatment is not adequate at all, needs to be upgraded. Ideally fasting should be < 100 mg, pp 150 to 170 mg & hba1c% <6.8%. Therefore there is a need to give a re-look at over all treatment which includes drugs, diet and exercise. There is no mention of weight, height and diet so difficult to say anything further. Thanks.
