Diabetologist,  's  Response
Hello, Thanks for the query. I have gone through the details and understand your feelings.
Unfortunately diabetes is such adifficult and life long problem, that one has to live with it. To remain fit and healthy strict blood glucose control is a must.
In some people in spite of fairly controlled blood glucose retinal problems do develop. In such a situation it is essential to achieve a stricter blood glucose control. You are only 68 years, so please work towards achieving a stricter glucose control. That will help in having a healthier life. Since no glucose levels & HbA1c% are mentioned, it is difficult to how good is the control. ideally FBG should be <100 mg, PP 160 to 180 mg & HbA1c%<7. Thanks.
