Hi Jagdish JI,
Thank you for reading at dietburrp. I dunt have any ready plan for your requirements. however, it seems you need a day to day dietary support, it will be best if you can take help from a registered dietician in your locality, as she will need to monitor your day to day blood sugar levels and other blood test reports and then plan a diet based on it.
