High blood sugar and an unhealthy lifestyle might be the reason for the weakness. Consult your diabetologist regarding the problem, explain to them briefly about the issues, and carry your recent blood reports like FBS (fasting blood sugar), HbA1c (Haemoglobin A1c), PPBS (postprandial blood sugar) tests. These tests are helpful in the analysis of your current issues.
Taking any medicine without a doctor’s approval can cause adverse effects. Thus, it’s best that you don’t replace your current medicines by yourself and consult your diabetologist for the same.
It is important to monitor your blood sugar levels every month at this age. You must follow a healthy lifestyle, good diet plan, and frequent exercise along with your medicines to better control your blood sugar levels.
