What the nephrologist meant was that no medicines are required for kidneys as kidney function is adequate. That doesn't mean he doesn't require Anti diabetic medication. At HbA1C of 8.4 he certainly requires medication for sugar control ( apart from diet mgmt and exercise)
Next Steps
kindly consult with details of medicine he is presently taking
