Hello,
Your current HBA1c,fasting blood sugar levels and mean glucose levels are llittle high and need better control.
You can revise the treatment and start by increasing the dose of metformin from 500 mg twice a day to 1000 mg twice a day.It should control your sugar levels.
If your blood sugar levels don't get controlled by this,then there are various other anti diabetic medications belonging to different classes which can be started to control your levels.
You can discuss with your treating doctor regarding this.
Thanks
