Suggest Treatment For Diabetes

I have detected a diabetes (hereditary) for last 5 yrs. I was taking medicine for 2 yrs for diabetes as suggested by my doctor. My blood sugar is in good contorl (fasting as well as PP never crosses range of 120 -150). As someone suggested that taking an apple a day (in the morning with empty stomach) and taking any B vitamin tab controlls diabetes (not cures) very well, I was taking 1 apple each morning and tab BEPLEX FORTE after lunch and dinner FOR last 5 months. My age is 40 yrs My actual weight was 64kg constant for many yrs (upto 2007-08) But last yr it was 60kg. I stopped taking diabetes medicine while taking apple and BEPLEX FORTE for last 5 months. Now I am experiencing some burden on me, nervousness, pessimistic thoughts and weight loss. My weight is 56kg now. but blood sugar fasting is always below 120 and PP below 150 though I have stopped taking diabetes medicine. But what about my burdened mind and weight loss? Is it due to BEPLEX FORTE 2 tabs daily?

Hello welcome to HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
First of all, to detect diabetes FBS should be >126
PP2BS should be >200 and HBA1c should be) 6.5.
So,kindly correlate your reports especially HBA1c report which is confirmatory report of diabetes.

Secondly, you are taking excessive dosage of vitamin tabs unnecessarily. Vitamin toxicity may lead to symptoms you have mentioned including weight loss. So, kindly check vit B12 LEVELS and stop taking Tab. B plex forte. DON'T TAKE SELF MEDICATIONS please.

Do your all routine blood check up including thyroid profile, kidney and liver profile and show it to your doctor.
Thank you.
