You can consider of changing insulin regime.
We can use long acting insulin and oral antidiabetic medicine. You can meet me at Ruby Hall Clinics Wanorie or Harsh hospital Bibwewadi.

Your blood sugars are under control because of the insulin you're taking. Please do not stop. Never change your diabetes medication without consulting the treating physician.
