Suggest Treatment To Regulate Blood Sugar Levels
My a1c was 5.4 in June and in Dec it was 6. I just took my sugar and it was 136 2 hours after I ate. This morning when I got up it was 126 before I ate. I have begun a low carb diet and plan to join a gym tomorrow. Should I start taking meds at this point or try to lower it by diet and exercise? YYYY@YYYY

Hi,
From the report it indicates that you might not require medicine and will control blood sugar with diet restriction and exercises.
go for regular exercises daily for 30-45 minutes 5 days in a week.
Control your diet with carbohydrates and fat.
Avoid sedentary life style.
Ok and take care.
