hello joginder singh,

I understand your concern. Becoming diabetic after surgery involving the spleen and pancreas is something that can happen, because the pancreas plays a key role in insulin production and digestion. At your young age (28), this can feel overwhelming, but with the right care in food, lifestyle, and medicines, you can keep diabetes under control and also protect your digestion. Let me explain in a simple way.

Why this happened

Your pancreas helps in both digesting food and controlling blood sugar. Surgery may have reduced its capacity, so now sugar control is weaker and digestion is more sensitive.

The good news: Ayurveda and lifestyle changes can support your digestion (agni) and keep sugar balanced.

Stepwise Plan

1. Food & Diet (most important for you now) Eat small frequent meals – don’t overload your stomach.

Best foods: Green gram (moong dal), barley, methi seeds, ridge gourd, snake gourd, bitter gourd (karela), drumstick. Roti made from wheat + barley mix. Fruits: guava, apple, papaya (avoid banana, mango, grapes).

Avoid strictly: White rice, refined flour, sugar, sweets, fried & oily foods. Cold drinks, packaged juices, excess milk.

2. Ayurvedic Medicines (general, but dosage must be fixed after seeing your sugar levels)

Nisha Amalaki churna – ½ tsp twice daily before food with warm water (supports both sugar and digestion). Triphala churna – ½ tsp at night with lukewarm water (cleans gut, prevents heaviness). Gudmar (Meshashringi) tablets – helps in controlling blood sugar. Sutshekhar Ras (if burning or acidity is present).

3. Lifestyle Support

Regular exercise: Brisk walk 30–40 mins daily. Fix sleep timings, avoid late nights. Stress increases sugar – practice daily deep breathing or meditation 10 mins. Always chew food slowly; don’t rush meals.

4. Investigations to monitor

Fasting & Postprandial blood sugar (every month initially). HbA1c (every 3 months). Kidney function tests once in 6 months. Eye check-up once a year (as diabetes can affect eyes).

Please don’t feel discouraged diabetes after pancreas surgery is not your fault, and it can be managed very well at your age. With disciplined diet, daily walking, and supportive Ayurvedic medicines, your digestion will become lighter and sugar will come under control. You can live a completely normal and active life, only with a little more care than before.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

The information you have provided indicates a serious medical condition that requires immediate attention from a qualified medical professional. Your blood sugar levels are sometimes over 350 mg/dL, which is considered a medical emergency, especially given your history of spleen and pancreas surgery

Given your specific medical history (spleen and pancreas surgery), the advice for managing your diabetes is highly specific The removal of part of your pancreas means your body’s ability to produce insulin and other digestive enzymes is likely impaired. This condition is often referred to as Type 3c diabetes.

Critical Medical Advice Contact Your Doctor Immediately: A blood sugar level consistently over 250 mg/dL, and especially over 350 mg/dL, is a medical emergency. You should not delay in speaking with your doctor or healthcare team. They may need to adjust your medication, including insulin dosage, or provide specific instructions for managing these high levels

Managing blood sugar levels, especially with a recent history of surgery involving the spleen and pancreas, requires a careful blend of medical consultation and lifestyle adjustments. Under Ayurvedic principles, balancing the doshas, particularly Kapha, can be beneficial in controlling blood sugar. Here’s what you can consider:

Dietary Recommendations: Instead of overconsuming heavy foods that increase Kapha, you may incorporate more bitter, astringent, and pungent tastes. These can be found in foods like bitter gourd, fenugreek, and neem. Stick to freshly prepared meals, avoid processed foods, and reduce or eliminate sugary items from your diet. Eat at regular intervals and do not skip meals, helping maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Digestive Health: Since you’ve had digestive issues, enhancing your Agni (digestive fire) is crucial. Consider drinking warm water throughout the day to aid digestion and incorporate spices such as ginger, turmeric, cumin, and coriander to improve digestive function. These can be added to your meals or consumed as herbal teas.

Lifestyle Adjustments: Regular exercise is vital. Activities like brisk walking, yoga, or even light aerobics can be beneficial. Aim for moderate exercise most days of the week to improve insulin sensitivity. Prioritize sleep as well, as a regular sleep schedule supports overall health.

Herbal Support: Chandraprabha Vati and Triphala are traditional Ayurvedic formulations which can help in managing blood glucose, but please consult with a local Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized dosage and appropriateness.

Given your recent surgery, it’s essential to monitor your condition closely with regular blood sugar tests and consultations with your healthcare provider. Integrating these practices with conventional medical guidance is very important. Do not discontinue any medications or treatments without professional advice. Ensure you stay hydrated, manage stress through meditation or breathing exercises, as stress can impact your blood glucose levels.

Controlling blood sugar levels requires a comprehensive approach, particularly given your history of spleen and pancreas surgery along with digestive issues. In Siddha-Ayurvedic understanding, managing diabetes involves balancing the vata, pitta, and kapha doshas, supporting the agni (digestive fire), and ensuring proper function of the dhatus (tissues).

First, focusing on diet is crucial. Opt for a diet low in refined sugars and carbohydrates. Favor whole grains like barley, millets, and brown rice as they help in stabilizing blood sugar levels. Bitter melon, known as karela, is traditionally used for its sugar-lowering effects and can be consumed either as a juice on an empty stomach or be included in meals.

Addressing digestion issues is essential too. Consider incorporating herbs like ginger or cumin which can help enhance your digestive fire (agni) without overpowering it. Taking trikatu churna (a combination of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger) with lukewarm water before meals might help improve digestion naturally.

For managing stress, which can indirectly affect blood sugar, incorporate breathing exercises like prayanama and meditation into your daily routine. These help in keeping the mind calm and balancing dosha imbalances.

Exercise is also important, aim for mild to moderate activity such as brisk walks or yoga, at least 5 times a week, which can help in metabolizing sugars more efficiently.

Regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels is absolutely essential given the current variances you’re experiencing. If your levels frequently exceed 350 mg/dL, it’s critical to work closely with a healthcare providers to ensure all potential complications are managed effectively. Any Ayurvedic intervention should complement, not replace, other treatments prescribed by your doctor.
