Kindly suggest.

Question

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. HbA1c% 10.2 is suggestive of totally uncontrolled diabetes. This is dangerous, can lead to early development of long term complications associated with diabetes, affecting eyes (retina), kidneys, peripheral blood vessels, heart and lower limbs. It is clear that present treatment is not helping in control. So please consult your treating physician and upgrade the treatment or if you seek online help, please come back with following details { Fasting, PP glucose levels, diet pattern, extent of daily exercise because with a BMI of 31 plus you are already in grade 1 obesity. That needs to be looked at. Your ideal body weight should be about 56 kgs, as against 82. I await your response. Thanks.
