It is essential to be vigilant and be aware of the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle and not just depend on the medicines. It is the combined effect of your habits and the medicines that play a major role in the control of blood sugar. Therefore always go for regular health check up and follow the advise of the doctor. The motto of treatment is to gain maximum benefit from the medicines (the doctor has to select the medicines based on your individual needs and current health condition) while avoiding the side-effects. If you give priority to your health and make the necessary lifestyle changes then the need for medical treatment can be kept at minimum. Read (from the internet) about the positive effects of diet control and exercise (including yoga - pranayam and meditation etc) and adapt the good habits.
