Hello,

This symptoms are due to hypoglycemia.
Now your blood sugar is very controlled and you're on medications. So frequent small meal is important to prevent hypoglycemia.

Now you're physically active and that reduces your insulin resistance and you're prone for hypoglycemia.

Consult your doctor and adjust the OHA according to the blood sugar level.

DEAR SIR/MADAM

YOUR FASTING SUGARS LEVELS ARE JUST ABOVE THE AVERAGE LEVELS.

IN THESE CASES IF YOU DONT TAKE FOOD INTAKE AT FREQUENT INTERVALS, SUGARS MIGHT FALL BELOW NORMAL

POSTURAL VARIATION OF BLOOD SUGARS COMMONLY HAPPENS WHEN YOUR SUGARS GET CONTROLLED AT NEAR NORMAL RANGES.

TRY TO REDUCE THE DOSAGE OF TABLET FOR HALF THE CURRENT DOSAGE FOR SOME TIME AND SEE ONCE.

THANKS
