Hello sugar levels are high. Need to be controlled. I suggest you to take homeopathic treatment along with allopathic medicines. It helps to maintain sugar levels to normal and prevents complications. Once sugar levels are normal slowly we can cut off allopathic medicines. You can consult me online for homeopathic treatment. No side effects.

Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query. Please let me know whether I am addressing a male or female? Because in the query it says female, but name is of a male. Looking at your weight and height with a bmi (body mass index) of 27.97 kgs/sq meter (normal < 23 kgs/sq meter) you are quite over weight having an excess of 14 plus kgs. This does affect glucose control. Plus there is a need to know present dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, age, hba1c%, lipid profile & bp readings before any advise can be given. However, from the glucose levels mentioned it is clear that there is a need for upgrading the present treatment in terms of drugs, plus we will have to look at other aspects too. So my suggestion is please come back with all the above mentioned information preferably in a private conversation, where I will be able to give specific advise and also prescribe the necessary medication. In this communication we are supposed to give only general guide lines, no drugs can recommended or prescribed. If you are not interested in online consultation, then please do consult your local physician because strict glucose levels maintaining (fbg, 100 mg, pp 150 to 170 mg & hba1c$ < 6.5%) is essential to prevent long term complications associated with diabetes. Thanks.
