Suggest Remedy For High Blood Sugar Levels

I am a diabetic. My doctor took me off of Actors. My blood sugar has been gradually climbing up.Been trying to adjust my lantus insulin. today I went from 211 blood sugar to 371. We had dinner late. I feel kind of strange right now. That s why I checked my blood sugar. That s when I noticed its at 371. What can I do to bring it down? Thank you Rosemarie McCumber

Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM.

Though you are diabetic but it's not clear that what Medicine you are talking for it. moreover are these results from glucometer or lab results and what is your level of HbA1c.However this level is high and you need to talk to your doctor regarding appropriate control. Moreover it would be of importance to know the status of your lipid profile, kidney function.
Some advice in general:
Keep HbA1c & lipid profile under control.
exercise as tolerated,
annual eye and dental checkup
and a very good Foot Care is a must.

Hope this helped. Do let us know.
