Blood sugar level
My blood sugar level at fasting was 110 and after breakfast was 220. I was prescribed glycomet tablet. I have heard that once we start diabetic medication it needs to be continued life long, is it correct? Or it can be stopped after the sugar levels comes under acceptable limits ( after consulting doctor only)
