I have had Diabetes Mellitus for 8 years and currently take Glycomet GP 1 Forte. My fasting sugar is 125, and post-meal values range from 170 to 200. My HbA1c has increased from 6.1 to 6.5. Recently, I have also been experiencing breathlessness and am taking Calcigen D3. How can I better control my diabetes?
Your sugar levels and HbA1c (6.5) are slightly above ideal, so better control is needed for Diabetes Mellitus. Continue Glycomet GP 1 Forte as prescribed, but focus on diet (reduce sugar and refined carbs), regular exercise (at least 30 minutes daily), and maintaining a healthy weight. Monitor your blood sugar regularly and follow consistent meal timings. Breathlessness should not be ignored; it could be due to anaemia, heart, or lung issues, so consult your doctor for evaluation. Calcigen D3 is generally safe, but it won't directly control diabetes. Your doctor may adjust medicines if needed based on your reports.
