Hey everyone,
I’ve been living with type 2 diabetes for the last 3 years and I’m honestly confused and a bit frustrated. My HbA1c is always below 6.8, which seems okay… but my post-prandial sugars are consistently high, usually above 230 mg/dL.
My fasting sugar averages around 140 mg/dL, and despite trying multiple medications over the years, the pattern hasn’t really changed.Right now I’m on:Vildagliptin 50 mg in the morning only.
I live in a South Indian household, so my diet is still very carb-heavy—rice, idli, dosa, etc. I do try to include protein, but in a combined family setup it's really hard to change the everyday meal pattern.
My parents eat the same carb-heavy meals, but their post-prandial sugars stay under 180 mg/dL, which is considered normal. Meanwhile, mine shoots up even with smaller portions.
I’m trying to understand:Why does this happen even though my HbA1c seems controlled?
Do I need Homa. IR Test and change medication?

I have been using Mixtard 30/70. Suddenly it has been stopped and pharmacies have no stock of Mixtard. I want to know the alternatives for this insulin. Not the expensive Rhyzodeg buy easily affordable and easily available one in the pharmacy.
