Hello,

Thanks for your query on Lybrate

"As" per your clinical history is concerned please discuss with your family doctor about the nature of your disease [Type 1 and Type 2], if type 2 then you can take medication as mentioned and if type 1 then you can take insulin regularly. In any case sugar level, 312 is very high at your age and it can deteriorate your heart further.

Hope that helps

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. To calculate eGFR I need to know serum creatinine value. If you have that please inform the same. Because if eGFR is lower than 45 ml/Minute metformin is not recommended. Thanks.

DM disease is linked to high cholesterol because diabetes can affect the different cholesterol levels. Even if blood sugar control is good, people with diabetes tend to have increased triglycerides, decreased high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and sometimes increased low-density lipoprotein (LDL). This increases the likelihood of developing atherosclerosis. So h can see why your doctor has prescribed medicine for cholesterol.

Hello, Vivek, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. From that it is clear that she is on multiple medications. However, there is no mention of herHbA1c%, weight, extent of physical activity, particularly exercises like brisk walking or any other activity plus dietary pattern . It is very essential to concentrate on following aspects - 1) weight control (BMI <23 kgs/Sq meter), 2) Taking a healthy balanced diet like - increased intake of green leafy vegetables, salads and certai...more

Atorvastatin reduces levels of "bad" cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein, or LDL) and triglycerides in the blood, while increasing levels of "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL). As you can see the statin is given to raise the good cholesterol in her body

Dear lybrate-user kumar,
I would prefer that first you check again your medicine properly. Sitagliptin is not available in 20 mg. And more over I can see glycomet gp1, glyconorm g1, tetagliptin* (mostly teneligliptin) in your details.
And if you are checking your sugar levels with glucometer at home, then I would suggest you check once from laboratory and repeat hba1c also from good laboratory.
Without any clear medical history it will be premature to comment regarding to your curren...more

Hello, thanks for the query.
The glucose levels mentioned (both fasting & pp) are quite fine, considering your age. It would have been better if you had mentioned current or latest hba1c%, that would have clarified it better. As regards changes suggested by your doctor of adding tenelegliptin and metformin for better control, I really do not see any requirement. Your fasting glucose can be reduced by even a slight alteration of your night time food intake and increasing the level of physical...more
