How to control high blood sugar?
I have diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Doctor prescribed me insulin with 8 shots daily. And some other tablets like tenglyn-m 500 and gluconorm-sr 500 and cobadex vitamin tablets. Is it OK to take insulin because many people tole me once I start taking insulin you have to continue for life long. So little worried. Kindly help. I have attached my blood test reports as well. Thank you.

Insulin is prescribed to Patients when needed and is withdrawn in many cases. It's a naturally occurring hormone not some habit forming chemical. If u r not a type 1 diabetic u can try oral tablets too
