Hello, Thanks for the query. It is possible that the drug/s used for controlling blood glucose may not be enough. There could be many reasons like - patients dietary control may not be adequate, food habits might have changed. Or over a period he might have started taking some additional food intake. Secondly the extent of exercise being done daily may have reduced or he may not doing it at all. Plus excess weight leads to affection of Insulin action including increase in the Insulin resistance. Looking at his weight and height it is clear that with a BMI of 30 kgs/Sq meter, he is already in grade 1 obesity. His ideal body weight should be 56 kgs, as against he has an excess of 16 kgs. This is the main culprit in upsetting the control. Plus there is a need to give a closer look at his current frug treatment, diet. Thanks.
