As you are diabetic since 22 years, it is not advisable to stop insulin.
1. We can reschedule insulin to your convenient timing and reduce number of pricks a day.
2. Send your medications and blood tests FBS Ppbs and HBA1C.
3. Get your retinoscopy done by ophthalmologist for retinopathy.
4. You can consult me on Practo with all details.
