Question

I'm really worried because my blood sugar is higher than it's ever been. I'm already on BP meds and I'm overweight. Should I think about starting medication for my sugar levels now? Is it even possible to get my levels back to normal at this point?

It's most likely diabetes and you should start medicines for the same. Better to confirm the sugar levels once again before starting medicines.
