Question

I'm a bit confused and a little worried about my blood sugar levels. My fasting blood sugar is 122, and my postprandial is 95. I always thought the postprandial level should be higher than the fasting one. Can you help me understand why this might be happening and what treatment options would be best for me? Does this mean I'm diabetic or not? I would really appreciate some guidance on this.

Question

I'm getting a bit worried because recently I've been gaining weight, feeling really lazy, and constantly tired. My doctor recommended a blood test, and the results showed my FT4 is 0.97 ngdl and TSH is 8.52 mIUml. I'm supposed to follow up with the doc next week, but I can't help but wonder if these levels are normal or if I might have something like hyperthyroid or hypothyroid? Can you help me understand what's going on with these results?

Question

I've just got my LFT test results, and I'm kind of worried because my GGT levels have shot up to 575. Plus, my triglycerides are at 281, and blood sugar levels from fasting are 168. I've been on Glycomet 500 MG Tablet SR twice a day, yet my foot has felt numb and tingly for the past year. I had sarcoidosis back in 2020, and my doctor had me on TB medication for 9 months. I quit smoking two years ago and don't drink at all. Other LFT parameters are fine. Could you help me understand why my GGT and triglycerides are high?
