Ans: Given your current HbA1c level of 9.4% and blood sugar readings, it seems that your diabetes is not fully controlled with your current medication regimen. For dietary modifications, focus on a balanced diet with low glycemic index foods, plenty of vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoid processed , sugary foods and drinks. Regular physical activity can help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels. It’s crucial to consult with your family physician before making any changes to your medication or starting new treatments. They can provide personalized advice based on your overall health and specific needs.
