My suggestion is if the medication isn't working; she definitely needs to modify her diet which is what I did for my neuropathy. I eat a low carb diet and low sugar diet. I find this has helped tremendously with my cholesterol and neuropathy. Also, I would go back to the doctor. Something sounds wrong with her sugar being so high in the morning unless she's eating late at night???
