On Medication For High Sugar Levels. Feeling Weak. Is There A Permanent Cure?
Hello Sir
My mother is 60 years old and recently we went to a doctor for blood test... Blood Sugar is 209 mg/l and doctor prescribed her medicines for that. She never had sugar in early years. After eating those medicines she is feeling very weak.... Please let me know is it necessary to take medicine everyday or is it permanently curable..
Thanks and Regards

Hello,
Blood sugar value of more than 200 mg/dl is diagnostic of Diabetes.
weakness in your mother's case is due to hyperglycemia.
Diabetic control will help her to overcome the symptoms.
Regular monitoring of blood sugar is important.
Diabetes is a chronic irreversible manageable illness.
As on today there is no permanent cure for diabetes.
