Trouble Regulating Blood Sugar

I'm 61 years old I was diagnosed with diabetes.

High numbers

I went to the doctor about a week ago he took my blood sugar reading and it was 500. My A1c was 11.

I have not eaten any sugar at all period and it has come down in the mid to high 100 to 200 but will not regulate even though I been starving myself not eating carbs or nothing.

What am I doing wrong?

Only time it really gets low is after I exercise then it gets too low down in the 50 or 75 I don't know what I'm doing wrong any advice?
