Need more info: Is your weight 87 pounds or kg. Talk to your doctor who knows your entire medical history and can better answer your question.

Unlikely: It depends upon if you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. If you have type 1 then it is not reversible. If you have type two and you weight 87kg then losing weight, going on a low carb diet and getting daily aerobic exercise could help you control your sugars and possibly get you off medications.
