My sugar level is at 200 before breakfast inspite of having regular medicines, Sulicent and thumb and 10 units of huminsulin in the morning as advised by a diabetologist one year ago. Of course I am having normal food and morning and evening tea without sugar, Can you please suggest any modifications.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Ideally when one is taking treatment for diabetes then blood glucose should be controlled as follows: Fasting < 100 mg, PP 160 to 180 mg & HbA1c% <7. This will help the person to prevent or postpone development of severe complications of diabetes. Fasting 200 mg is too bad. What is the usual PP glucose level and HbA1c%? It appears that current treatment is inadequate, plus your dietary intake is more and there appears to be no physical activity. To burn extra glucose daily exercise for over 1 hour is needed. At your age at least 5 days a week exercise is needed. Having excess weight is another reason for high glucose levels. So you will have to look at all those aspects. Thanks.
