Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,
If your blood sugar is still under not well control then I would suggest you to continue with this mixtard 30 and 35 units as you are taking right now with oral hypoglycaemics drug.
Here you need to restrict your sugar by avoiding sweet and sugar in the diet.
You should consult your treating physician who knows best about your medical history and can change your medications best.
