Dear Mohd Mansoor Ali,
You have mentioned only glimipride. your PPBS value considering that your fasting is quite makes me conclude that amaryl 2mg is working well for you. I fail to understand why you are not on metformin.
If you were my patient
1. I would have put you on a combination of glimipride with metformin
2. Suggested HbA1c every 3-6months
3. Planned your diet as per your daily schedule.
You may please discuss these points with your Diabetologist.
Wishing you the best!
