Being in the family of diabetics(8members!) and having touching the age of 50, I have been just diagnised as diabetic with fasting glucose at 250. started on metformin + Pioz 15 + Glipride 2mg (one tablet daily). I do not know how far will this go on. but I have made mind not get any more like kidney problem etc. I ahve already have a redo aortic valve surgery(first in 1994). I think more than medication meditation will bring the glucose down.

I'm not sure if you exercise or not, but exercise is one of the best preventative therapies. Regular exercise, keeping hydrated, keeping your glucose in a normal range, and ensuring your cholesterol is within normal limits will greatly decrease the likelihood of further complications. Good luck to you!

venkata, what are you eating? Diet and exercise are both important factors.

I bet meditation will help too!
