Brief Answer:
Increase the dosage of insulin

Detailed Answer:
Hi sir, i have gone through your query and understood your concerns.

Sir, the sugar levels you have mentioned are slightly higher than normal.

My advice is to increase the insulin to 18units in the morning. Rest follow same. Have the sugar levels checked after 1 month. It will reduce the sugar levels to normal. If still high after that, the dosage can be increased to 20 units. But first increase to 18 and check sugar levels.

Thank you sir.
wish you good health
