Hello @tirth and welcome.

Your profile states your type 1 and controlled by diet, how have you come to realise you are type 1 and how are you managing your blood glucose levels ?

Good morning Tirth and welcome to the forum.

Hello @tirth and welcome.

My random blood sugar levels are higher than 200mg/dL. I also experience signs and symptoms of type 1 diabetes like frequent urination and extreme thirst. I try to keep my blood glucose levels in the optimum range by by maintaining a balance in the foods that I eat, physical activity and medication. Also I monitor my blood glucose levels throughout the day.

[tirth]

What doses are you taking of these ?

zomelis 500 mg 2*1
nd the other I haven’t taken yet as I m very afraid of getting injections
few days back i just took once and the dose i didn’t remember as it was in india and i didnt remember i need to check my prescription as the family doc does all these

Hello @tirth are you quite sure you are type 1 ? Onset is sudden and you would be in hospital, then you would need injections immediately, Zomelis is prescribed to type 2, so maybe you need to check your diagnosis properly ?

You had better get in to see a GP asap then - if you are really type 1 then you will need to get a confirmed diagnosis so you know what medication you should be taking.
