combination of pills is a start, if you have maximised on the pills then your doctor could consider insulin. Regardless of above and your current weight, weight loss of 10-20 lbs may help too, feel free to email me if you want to discuss the details

Keep in mind that complex carbs will drastically affect your blood glucose levels for hours. Stuff like pasta, pizza, and bread. However, as many people here have already said, best advice to seek out an endo or internal medicine specialist to start an effective regimen of diet, medication, and excercise. They may refer you to a nutritionist and/or certified diabetes educator (CDE). Keeping your blood glucose at high levels for an extended can be very dangerous. Just don't overdo the solution and stray into the opposite hazard of low blood glucose, or insulin shock. It's definitely some balancing work. Good luck.

You know you have to contact your doctor if its a high for over 6 hours right??
What I do is call the doctors office and talk to his nurse, the nurse will suggest some things based on what she knows about me, and then she talks with my doctor, he will sometimes call back with more information and we all get it solved together.
You must rely on your team! they work for you and want only what is best for you.
We all know it is scary but it is a fact of our lifes.
Good Luck

Talk to your doctor. A lower carb diet and exercise along with diet should help regulate your sugar, and if that doesnt work along with your meds, it's insulin time.
