high blood sugar

my fasting blood sugar today was 283. The doctor recommended excercise, vitamins, nuts and cinnamon. Is this the best way to bring down my sugar level?

Anonymous Patient

What you're doctor recommended are lifestyle changes that people who are beginning to develop diabetes can adopt to reduce their risk of developing it. However; your fasting blood sugar seems to indicate that you may be way past the point of just beginning to develop diabetes; it indicates that you have it and that it is severe. You need a much more intensive workup and most like likely medication ASAP.
