Hello, thanks for the query. I have seen the details mentioned. The post lunch glucose is high. This can be controlled by 1) reducing the food intake (reduce the carb content). 2) increase the insulin dosage by 2 units or take a prandial dosage rapid acting insulin. Another aspect is that looking at ypur weight & height with a bmi of 27.51 kg/sq meter you are over weigt and very close to become a grade 1 obesity person. Your ideal body weight should be 69 kg, which means there is an excess of 13 kg. Reduction in weight will also help in achieving better glucose control. Thanks.
