Hello Doctor, I am 56 years old and have been taking Gemy M2 for diabetes for the past 5 years, which has kept my condition under control. Yesterday, my post lunch blood sugar was 300 mg/dL and fasting was 200 mg/dL. Can I take IME 9 along with my regular medication? Please advise.

300 is high, needs correction. IME 9 is herbal, take only under supervision. Adjust diet/meds, monitor sugars.

I have recently done a blood test, and my report shows a fasting blood glucose of 286 mg/dl and postprandial glucose of 393 mg/dl. Please suggest how I can control this by managing my diet and doing exercise. Which foods should be avoided?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I had a postprandial blood sugar (PPBS) test 2 hours after a meal, and the result was 250. Can you explain why this level is high? Also, can I take fish oil (Omega 3) for cholesterol management?

He is 41 years old, and today we got his HbA1c test result, which is 7.1 percent. Does this mean he is diabetic? We are really worried. Should he start medication immediately, or is it possible to control it with diet and lifestyle changes? Please advise.
