How can I get my blood sugar levels down and stable?

My open RNY has been postponed for the second time by BTC in Ohio - this time because my blood sugar levels are staying above 200. My PCP changed my oral meds yesterday to try to see if that would help (was on Glucovance now on Glucophage and Prandin) I have type II diabetes and am pretty healthy considering I'm 5'4" and 280#. I swim laps each morning and walk each night and watch the carbs etc in my diet. I just can't get my sugar to go down far enough to be cleared for surgery. Any ideas that will help? BTC says they need to be below 150 and stable for at least two full weeks before they reschedual me. HELP! I feel so ready for surgery and so bummed about this new delay.Any suggestions?
