Your sugar levels are much beyond acceptable limits. You will need to do all three #1. Medicine #2. Diet mgt #3. Regular exercise. When you follow this routine properly, there is a chance that your HbA1c result can come below 6.0. When that happens, you may be able to get off medicines It is not possible to predict it. However you should try your best to minimize the impact of diabetes. Take it as a challenge and improve your life.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Fasting 168 mg (very high) & PP 238 mg both are suggestive of presence of uncontrolled diabetes. In such a situation drug treatment is essential plus diet control and regular exercise to control weight and burn extra glucose also is needed. Once diabetes is confirmed, then it is rather impossible to control it with only exercise and dist. That is possible in pre-diabetic state. My suggestion is please initiate appropriate treatment without any delay. If you are looking for online guidance, then come with following details: Fasting, Pp (current), HbA1c%, dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, weight & height, then I will be able to give specific guidance. Thanks.
