Slight increase in sugar levels

2020-07-07 13:21:57
My father was diagnosed pre-diabetic 2 years back and was asked to control sugar levels through diet and exercise. Presently the sugar levels during fast is 126, 2hrs post breakfast is 145, 2 hrs post lunch is between 166 and 180. Please advise if a treatment needs to be initiated. Last checked his hb1ac was 6.6 (143) in Oct 2019 Thyroid T3 - 132 T4 - 8.6 TSH - 4.480
