Your HbA1c and blood sugar levels suggest that your diabetes is not well controlled at present. Regular meals, limiting sugary and processed foods, and including light physical activity can help improve sugar control even during travel. Continue taking your medicines regularly and monitor your blood sugar from time to time. Consult your doctor to review your treatment, as the dose or medicines may need adjustment.
