Question

I recently did a sugar test and my fasting level was 92, not sure if that's okay. After eating, it was 150. I have a family history of sugar problems, so should I be concerned about these numbers and think about seeing a doctor?

Based on your results, a fasting sugar of 92 mgdL is within the normal range, but a post-meal reading of 150 mgdL could indicate prediabetes or early signs of insulin resistance. Given your family history of diabetes, I recommend consulting a doctor for further evaluation and to discuss preventive measures.

I'm really worried because one side of my chest is swollen and it's been painful when I press on it. I'm 21 and this has been going on for two years now. I think it might be gynecomastia. I'm really hoping there's something I can do about it besides surgery. Is there any other treatment or way to deal with this?

Question

I'm really concerned about needing to inject water when I'm unwell because both times it made me feel really cold, caused vomiting, and even my eyes went upwards. I'm worried about how to handle it if I get sick again and require another water inject. Does everyone experience these symptoms, or is this unusual?

Question

I've recently found out that my TSH level is 11.4. Is that something I should be concerned about? Could you guide me on how much medication I might need to take, and maybe suggest a diet plan that could help? I'm just not sure what's best to do right now.
