If his doctor is OK with it, I would drop the other supplements and try famotidine for a week. I have had a lot of people email me over the years with intractable blood sugar issues and 20mg famotidine x 2 daily invariably dropped their blood sugar to the point their doctor thought they are shooting insulin. But again, I would ask the doctor first as it is technically a drug and the doctor should know what a person with such high blood sugar is using. If his kidneys are shot then the famotidine dose may need to be lowered.

"...Famotidine was investigated as an inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) in an attempt to explain the molecular mechanism of its hypoglycemic side effects."
If the blood glucose normalizes then he can probably reintroduce pregnenolone/DHEA and D/K/B3 as those would be most beneficial for such issues IMO.
Thank you! What results have those people had with famotidine? Do you think it could lower his sugar from 259 to 100 range fasting? My father did have nephrotic syndrome, but I was able to resolve it before I found Peat with herbals which I think may have led to his diabetes. But no evidence of that.
Any other safer anti-histamines? What about Benadryl/cypro? I don't know why I have weird feelings about famotidine.
