Hi,
Actually my husband is diabetic and is on medication for the same like Metformin, galvusmet, voglibose, repaglinide, daplo, razael F forte, pregab 75, Ezetimibe, imextor, febuget, fish oil caps. He also neuropathy and since some time his triglycerides have been too high like the recent is 607 for which he has been taking medicine also. Recently someone told him about the Arjun Chaal dried parts which is to be kept in water overnight and then taken in the morning first thing. I wanted to know if it is okay to take arjun chaal for triglycerides because his triglycerides were 607 recently, along with other allopathic medicines that he is taking. Will it be harmful? He urine ACR was 278 in the last test.
I was diagnosed with diabetes 1.5 years ago (since 2025). At that time, my sugar levels were as follows: Fasting 274 and HbA1c 11.9.
I consulted a naturopathic doctor who did not prescribe any medication but gave me B12 and D injections. After three months, my test results were:-
Fasting 285 and HbA1c 11.7, showing no improvement, so I stopped treatment.
On October 9, 2026, I had another blood test (kindly refer the summary attached for latest blood test report). Currently, my fasting blood sugar is 372 and HbA1c is 12.5, which is severe. I consulted a diabetologist who recommended insulin, but I prefer not to take it. The doctor also prescribed metformin and a cholesterol medication (10 mg, name unclear; my LDL level is 121) along with D3.
The tests "NOT MENTIONED" in the attached summary are "NORMAL"
Questions:
1. Is it possible to normalize my sugar levels without insulin?
2. What medications do you recommend based on my report?
3. Is this serious?
4. What to do and what not?
I have been taking Glycomet 500 but my diabetes is still very high. The report has been attached in my reports tab. I need a change in medication to control my diabetes more effectively.

When is this blood test used and Recommended?
