some things to consider..
1, do you think you can make the changes to reduce your hba1c without meds?
2, 3 weeks is not enough, however the hba1c is slightly biased towards the nearest month. so 6 weeks you might start to see a change.. nothing stopping you trying to arrange your blood test 3 weeks from now and finding you can't get an appointment for another 3/4 weeks
3, its your body you decided if/when to take medication.. its not for the doctor to agree to give you 3 weeks, its for you to say im going to try xxx first, if this doesn't work in xxx time i will decide at that point if i want to take xxx medication. he can 'advise' you on what you should do, but he can't 'insist'
so, sit and think.. can you do it? can you make the required lifestyle changes to bring those numbers down.. remember though diabetes is for life, not just 3 months, so even if you do bring those numbers down, if you start to relax the changes you could be back in the same situation again..
so good luck.. and remember you are in charge
