While your fasting blood sugar of 100 mg/dL is excellent, your random level of 264 mg/dL is high, indicating your body needs support processing sugar after meals. Since you stopped taking Jalra M 50 (vildagliptin/metformin), it is highly advisable to consult your doctor before restarting it. They will check your HbA1c to evaluate your overall control and determine if resuming this medication or adjusting your plan is safest for you. Meanwhile, please focus on a balanced, low-carb diet and gentle daily walks.
