Hello, Thanks for the query.
From what you have mentioned it is clear that you are having diabetes. But there is no mention of either fasting or PP glucose levels as well as HbA1c%. Plus no information on which drugs you are on and their dosage. WIthout whihc there is no way to comment. Plus there is no information on weight, height, extent of daily exercise and dietary pattern. Thanks.
