Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
I would come up with these measures before any medication for diabetes, these includes.
First time your blood sugar level was 126 & 276 , on empty and after meal.
second time it was 108 & 141 .
The after meal blood sugar level on 2nd time was not elevated , rather it was a border line case.
So in my opinion you should wait at least for two times blood sugar examination . If we eat high carbohydrate diet , naturally sugar level will elevate.
So in my opinion take carbohydrate free diet and then get in blood for sugar level . Also it might help to get in HB A 1 C blood examination.
Hope I have answered your question . If further any question I will help.
