My fasting was 240, pp was 320 when diagnosed on 21/12/2018, my height 168 cm and weight was 70 when diagnosed. Hba1c is 10? as on 17/1/2019, after diagnosis I was given azadu 10/25 and gladly m forte at night and morning respectably. Later I faced problem with acute 10/25 and the doctor suggested me to take half of the pill. And it was fixed. After that gld some medicine was given and it was wise for me making my glucose levels down very often. And doctor suggested me to take glytrin 20 with regular exercise. As sir you have mentioned no treatment is advocated for the 8.67, but my doc prescribed me eltroxin 25 for months. Should I continue the medicine or stop and do some physical exercise. As I have started my medicine on 20/02/2019. It is only 2 days. Please suggest both.

Mr. lybrate-user, There two different things in this question, 1) high glucose levels being treated by some drugs & 2) treatment advocated for subclinical hypothyroidism, (tsh 8.67 mu/l). With fasting and pp glucose being very high and hba1c% of 10%, it is clear that diabetes is is uncontrolled. But there is no mention whether now with treatment there is any better control achieved or not at all. In a well controlled diabetes fasting glucose should be < 100 mg, pp 150 to 160 mg & hba1c% < 6.8. For achieving those levels, appropriate medications, diet plus exercise are needed. As regards taking thyroxine which you have already been taking for quite some time, so that needs to be continued. Only thing is get tsh checked now. It should be around 3 to 4 mu/l. Thanks.
