Type 2 + Hypertension: Saroj D. (Lucknow, 71) — HbA1c 9.0 → 6.8 in 6 Months

Patient profile
- Name: Saroj D.
- Age: 71 · Sex: Female
- City: Lucknow, India
- Diagnosis: Type 2 Diabetes + Stage 1 Hypertension (BP 148/92)
Starting numbers
- HbA1c: 9.0%
- BP: 148/92 mmHg
- Medications: Glimepiride + Telmisartan 40mg + Amlodipine 5mg
Personalised protocol
Older patients often need a longer ramp. UrCare's plan extended over 6 months with gentler load progression — PancreReViv + GlucoLow at half-dose for the first two weeks, low-sodium north-Indian meal plan adjusted for her preferences, and supervised walking instead of strength training.
Timeline
- Month 2: HbA1c 8.0%, BP averaging 138/86.
- Month 4: Glimepiride discontinued. Amlodipine halved to 2.5mg.
- Month 6: HbA1c 6.8%, BP 128/82.
Outcome
HbA1c 9.0 → 6.8%. BP medication halved. Treatment took longer than the cohort average — a reminder that age, baseline severity and co-morbidities all shape timeline.
In Saroj's words
"Took longer for me — about 6 months. But sugar is now in range and BP medication has been halved. Wish the meal plan had more north-Indian options."
