Fasting is always high.
My husband hb1ac was 8.5 when he checked two months back.and after that he started taking medication and strict diet but whenever he checks in the morning his fasting sugar is not coming below 122. One day he skipped his dinner so next morning it came 106.
We are really worried why his sugar is not coming in the range. He is just 34 and we dont want to depend on medicine now. And dont want to increase dose also. We thought once it will come down with doctor permission we will stop medicine and follow diet only. His Sgpt and sgot was high, he is taking its medicine also.
