Father suffering from diabetes
My father was under one doctor prescription and his sugar came control within few days from 400 to below 200.
Though now since the time he started medication he is not able to walk, he even fainted multiple times and got stitches.
We are suspecting the medicines are of high dose
Can anyone please help me to understand what's going on with my dad.
