Hello Dr. I recently found out that my blood sugar level is 153 mg/dl in fasting. When I checked in evening it's showing 157 mg/ml. Do I need to start any medicines. Or controlled diet and exercises will help to reduce it?

I suggest a blood test called as Hba1c to confirm. It will help decide whether medicines need to be started in addition to diet and exercise.
