"The Doctor and I have the blood sugar under control (89 to 130)"
These numbers indicate control only if the former was derived from a fasting glucose test and the latter a postprandial test result. Other than that, they are not in "control".
"a1c seems to keep in th range of 7.7 to 8.1"
This says you average daily blood glucose level is 197 mg/dl to 211 mg/dl, basically suicidal. You have one foot in the door, if not step inside the door of diabetes complications. Not a good place to be.
"Is there anything else I can be doing?"
Why don't you tell us what YOU ARE DOING? And what you already know you should be doing but ignoring? Your height and weight? Then we can fill in the blanks and suggest options.
The A1C is merely an average of the blood sugars over a period of time of 2-3 months. Your A1C definitely doesn't reflect the range you describe of 89 to 130. Sometimes it seems as though it isn't accounted for exactly, by the daily numbers but yours is pretty far off. Could it be that the period of time included a time before you got your blood sugars into range to account for the higher average?
As for what you can do to get your blood sugars down, you mention the meds you take but not the other important other things you need to do to manage Type 2 which is maintain a healthy BMI (weight), exercise and reduce your carb intake.
