HBA1C is 8.1
I had maternal diabetics. But after delivery my sugar level was normal. 8 month befre I have done HBA1C test and it was 6.8. So I started some ayurveda medicine. But stopped in between. And now when I tested it shows 8.1. I am extremely worried about this. Previous months I had eaten more chocolates. What I have to do now? Can I reduce it without
