No, it's not ok. Fasting blood sugar level should be near 100 and 2 hr after breakfast close to 150 mg/dl.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
When blood glucose is not well controlled, there is a possibility of loosing glucose through urine. This causes excess urination, weight loss and tired feeling. You have only mentioned about the treatment being taken, but there is no mention of current fasting, PP glucose levels and HbA1c%. Ideally Fasting should be < 100 mg, PP 150 to 160 mg & HbA1c% < 6.8. In that situation there is no weight loss or excess urination. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
From the glucose levels mentioned (both fasting & PP) your treatment appears to be good. It is also necessary to know the HbA1c%, which should be < 6.8%. As regards giving a diet I need to know current diet, extent of daily exercise being done, lipid profile etc. Then only I will be able to give the same. Thanks.

You can add galvus to your current medicines instead of switching if your liver n kidney function test are normal and if you never had pancreatitis. Monitor your sugar levels every week to 10 days to see response.

There's no connection between Galvus Met 100 --post dinner and sleep and the sleep disturbance can be due to other diseases or you anxiety. You can take painkillers for pain (not for to long) and take glass of milk before bedtime.

you are taking a food number of medications to control high bp and high blood sugar, but the major problem is your obesity (bmi 32.72 kg/m2), unless you work hard in reducing the weight, it is the only you can help your self.
