I agree with Sally that you have a lot to learn but once you learn it you will be on your way to lowering that A1C. I also want to add that if you lose and then maintain a healthy weight it will make it much easier to manage the blood sugar.
Hello,
you need to adjust your diet and exercise to keep your blood sugar below 140 at all times.
Better if you can target truly normal levels, which are less than 100 upon waking and less than 120 2 hours after eating.
Advise you get a blood sugar test kit and monitor after meals and in the morning. This can be used to help you adjust your diet appropriately.
Read up on diabetes and diet. This is a condition that can be managed well with lifestyle changes and meds, if necessary.
