Hello,

Your blood sugar 1 hour after your normal breakfast of 117 is perfectly normal.

I think you should keep following this healthy diabetic diet and lifestyle regimen as you are doing til now.
As per medications you take, I think you should keep monitoring your blood sugar levels, record the results for reference. Then, show them to your caring doctor as you might need some changes in their dose.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
