The Sugar level is alarming... Very high.. Though diet plays an important role, but medications are needed to bring sugar down.. this much increased sugar will have bad effects on kidney and other organs..Only drinking karela juice will not help
Beside potato and rice, there is roti which also contains carb..she need proper dietary modification along with Medicine. Before consulting keep The fasting sugar, sugar PP, and HbA1c , along with fasting lipid profile report handy...
You can consult a Diabetologist or an Endocrinologist.

Sugars are very high she needs to start exercise regularly and maintain diet. Need to stop diet sugars have more pulses grams and veggies. So with this report she needs to be on insulin as sugars are very high. So change of medicines depends on FBS PPBS and HBA1c. So u can do that and consult.
