Just eat smaller portions and eat more often.This keeps your blood sugar from spiking too high.The doctor will likely order a blood test that will tell your average blood sugar from the last 3 months.If this number is too high then the doctor will prescribe medication.Do you have type 1 or type2.Cause type 2 can be controlled with diet and exercise.Metformin is usually the med. to take cause you can start out on a very low dose of 250mg.Exercise is the key here.A good brisk walk for 15or20 min. can lower it conciderably.

Carefully watch your diet....no sugar, low fat low carb & high protien.....try to stay around 1500-1800 calories.....Google diabetic diets or the ADA(American Diabetic Association)....and see your doc ASAP.....prolonged high levels of glucose in the blood it what causes damage to things like nerve endings & your eyes....Good Luck!

watch your diet till you can see your MD no sugars and watch the carbs too

the only way u can lower it is my taking a medication for it. There is no way to lower it other then that. Sense your sugar is so high there is no other way to lower it other then meds.
