Hello, thanks for the query.
Looking at your high glucose levels, it appears there is a need to start on insulin itself. The drugs prescribed are absolutely safe and will help in controlling glucose levels. There is more serious danger with uncontrolled diabetes than any of the drugs. So please continue the treatment. Thanks.

If you are diabetic, know that high blood pressure level can take a severe toll on your eyes in the form of blurry vision, cataract, glaucoma and retinopathy, if left unchecked. It can even lead to partial/complete blindness in young adults. Nonetheless, a strict control over your blood sugar count would prove effective in preventing such eye complications in the long run.

Not to remain hungry, eat low carbs. Preferably take fruits minimum 10% or more by weight of your body weight upto 12 o clock daily, nothing else. If you can not stay upto 12 o clock, restrain max time you can. Do it for a week and revert for adjustment if any. We ll tell you herbs too. Do not compromise your present medicine yet.

Yes, uncontrolled diabetes is an open invitation for all kinds of problems. Read about diabetes and it's complications from the internet. Take the right steps: adapting healthy lifestyle with a disciplined approach will be helpful to improve overall well-being and also achieve good control over the blood sugar levels. You can also add homeopathy which is helpful in improving the immune status and the general metabolism. You can contact me for a private consultation if needed.
