Hello,
Your fasting sugar levels are normal.
Post prandial sugar levels are just 165,which is not diabetes but a pre diabetes stage called as impaired glucose tolerance.
In my opinion,there is no need of any medicine because simple dietary controls and regular aetobic exercises for 45 minutes a day should make you all right..
Your symptoms of nausea and uneasiness in stomach is due to the use of antidiabetic medication ( ISTAMET ) .
Metformin present in ISTAMET cause these symptoms.
Thanks
