Your HbA1c is quite high. Please consult a diabetologist or endocrinologist and follow his suggestions . Meanwhile be very particular with your diet and must do some physical work and some walking. On daily basis. I may also suggest you to educate yourself in diabetes self management. You will find good and suitable sites on web.

Thank u very much for your suggestion,I do walk 30 minutes daily,I am very obedient patient,I am under an endocrinologist,though I am unable to contrail my sugar level. I contact with life span chain diabetic clinic which is in Calcutta.

You have not said anything about your diet. No information about your ht., wt,,thyroid function etc, etc.

I am 5ft 5inch,wt is 58 kg,and I am 48 years. I take red tea without sugar twice daily with biscuits.I take rice ,vegetables,fish ,dal in lunch& at dinner four hand made roti with vegetables one piece fish/ one egg /two piece chicken.And tiff-en small amount of puffed rice or fruits.

So ,no breakfast and / or evening snack. Well, even then your diet is quite heavy .start reducing your diet slowly ,and no drastic steps. You take rice, 4 roti,and dal along with non veg items. So you can start cutting on rice,roti and dal to start with.

Please get your lipid profile done and also thyroid function test.

As I have said brace your self up for diabetes self management.

Note- hope you are not hypertensive and there is no problem with kidney or liver.
