Fluctuations in blood sugar
The blood sugar has been fluctuating between 200 and 300. The patient takes glycomet 500mg 3 times a day, and eats daliya and sometimes rice, after eating rice the sugar increases but even while eating daliya, sugar levels still persists around 200. The previous doctor did tests and gave tablets, but due to eating the tablets the patient has had more fluctuations, then we stopped it and started taking glycomet tablets. Please suggest any tablets or medications to make the sugar stay in control.
