Hi, noted your concern. Ideally, at this situation, insulin is the best choice to manage his Diabetes. Insulin treatment plan always depends on the patient profile & their sugar patterns. It is always customized plan according to each & every patient. I would suggest you to be in touch with Diabetologist or endocrinologist nearby and get urself educated about the plan & protocols. Take care.

First of all sugar medicines need to be stopped. As he's bed ridden and needs surgery, he should be exclusively maintained on insulin according to sliding scale. Frequent monitoring . You can get it in touch with me to send you complete protocols
