Hi, once diagnosed, diabetes mellitus can not be cured. It means we would need some sort of treatment to keep it in normal targeted range.
As it is gradually progressive disease, we need to keep eye on the its progress along with the complications.
But the good news is, if someone follows diet and exercise in proper ways, we can surely keep your diabetes in the targeted range with MINIMAL DRUGS.. & sometimes without drugs too.
Next Steps
Try to follow your lifestyle as advised by your doctor strictly.

Diabetes cannot be cured. It can only be kept under control with dietary changes, exercise and appropriate treatment.
