Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

Persist my friend. You are probably doing the best of what you can do. However I would have like to know what exactly are the medicines you are taking. The reason being that most of the anti diabetic agents can cause weigh gain. Some of them also cause gain of weight.

I would sincerely request you to put up your treatment record. And keep up the good work friend. A good diet and regular exercise keeps you fit on the diabetes front.

Would also like to know your kft, echo and blood pressure. If you are retaining water, some small dose of diuretics may help.

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above so i can be of help further. Best of luck.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.

Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.
