I am 75 years. Recently recovered from corona. I was on steroid in the hospital. After discharge I was advised to take medrol 28 mg which now tapered to 4 mg. My sugar level was quite high to 400 but in the morning it was 90 to 100 and after breakfast it came to be 100 to 120. I was advised to take trajenta 5 mg before breakfast and glycomet 0.5 mg in the evening. Now I have been advised to take trajenta duo 2.5 mg/500 twice a day with result that my sugar level now in the morning 80 to 90 after breakfast 115 to 130 and after lunch 245 and after dinner 127. Now my query is should I reduce taking trajenta duo to one tablet daily. Will. After taking trajenta duo I have slight headache. I have undergone by pass surgery 2 years ago and also I have ulcerative colitis and giant cell arthritis. Pl advise me about sugar medicine.
