Hi,
Welcome to HCM
You are diabetic Type II for last 19 years, it is possible that you do not take care of your diet as you have taken sweets,
diabetes is lofelong disease and have to take care of diet and exercise alog with medication as your HbA1c is also 8.5 which indirctly tells your mean Glucose is not well controlled.
Please follow diet 25 Kcal/kg body weight and take help of dietition,and take regularly your anti diabetic drugs,please do not stop or start medicine without consultation of Physician.
If it is not controlled you must discuss possibilty of initiating long acting Insulin or premix insulin.
It is good that your Lipid profile is controlled.
Take care
Good Luck

Hello,
Although you are diabetic for past 10 years and this is the time period during which oral anti diabetic drugs loose their efficacy gradually,but their is still lot of scope in you for further improvement in dosage of current medicine as well as adding other drugs.
Along with this drug modifications,you must resort to other measures like regular exercises and proper dietary restrictions.
Since it is not possible to treat and monitor you online,you must consult a diabetologist and get yourself treated properly.
Thanks
