Is it good for diabetics to take traditional Chinese medicine?

Patient's question:

Because in this period of time, my appetite hasn't decreased, but my body is becoming increasingly thin, and I feel weak all over. I drink more and more water, then I carefully checked it, and the doctor said I had diabetes, and told me to take medicine. I want to ask, is it good to take traditional Chinese medicine?

Doctor's answer:

The condition of diabetes is also different, and blood sugar levels vary. If the blood sugar is not particularly high, dietary control and traditional Chinese medicine regulation are sufficient. For particularly high blood sugar, it is also necessary to take oral hypoglycemic drugs and insulin regulation on time. You can go to the traditional Chinese medicine department of a nearby hospital for a check-up. Consider traditional Chinese medicine and other symptomatic regulation for a period of time to see. Under the guidance of a doctor, medication treatment should be adjusted according to the different conditions. Regular check-ups should be scheduled after taking the medication.
