My age is 45 and I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 3 months back. My fasting sugar was 290 and post lunch sugar was 360. Doctor gave me glycheck and also m tablet and now my fasting sugar is 98 and post lunch is 136. I want to know if I need to continue the medicine for rest of my life. As of now doctor had stop glycheck and only prescribed also m as diabetes is in control.

Thanks for reaching out. Since you already had such high sugar levels and is now in control range, my advice to you is please continue taking m tablets as it will keep the sugar in check. In case you discontinue abruptly then you may feel well for the time being but when the levels will rise again (it will most definitely) then even tablets won't help control it, you will have to take insulin injections and also have serious kidney complications. Take care.
