Diabetes issue

Hi, I have been in pre diabetic stage for long time. In March 2021, my fasting sugar was 108 and H1B1Ac 5.2 and in Sep 2021, it was 118 and 5.8 respectively. I always monitor my blood sugar level at home. This is done by weekly most of the time. I have observed that sometimes my blood sugar levels get elevated to 230 after lunch and fasting sugar gets to 130 levels. I have started walk for 35-40 minutes everyday. Kindly help me to know if I need to start taking medicines or dietary control can help. I take salty oat meal in breakfast and chapatis in lunch and dinner. Very less amout of potatoes intake and white rice. Kindly suggest in what form can I take potatoes. If I need to take medicine for same then please help to recommend one.

Pain at left side of my body.

I am a debatic and having hypertension too. I usually have pain at the left side of my body. Specially at morning I woke up I could experience pain at my left thigh waist, left arm and shoulder and neck. As the day progresses it becomes normal. Sometimes pain is severe and sometimes it's normal. Even mood also swings. Already I am on medication but I could not find relief. Is it due to obesity.
