Dear Anonymous,
Your current glucose levels could probably be controlled with a modified diet and not necessarily medications. Talk with your current doctor or nutritionist about the diet that you're currently on and what you can do to help your numbers (even though you've done a great job bringing down your original levels).
Normal Blood Sugar levels are:
Fasting blood glucose:
70-99 milligrams per deciliter (3.9-5.5mmol/L)
2 hours after eating (postprandial):
70-145 mg/dL (3.9-8.1 mmol/L)
Random (casual):
70-125 mg/dL (3.9-6.9 mmol/L)
All the best!
