Type 2 diabetes is often milder than type 1. But it can still cause major health complications, especially in the tiny blood vessels in your kidneys, nerves, and eyes. Type 2 also raises your risk of heart disease and stroke.

Question

I'm a bit worried because I've been losing a lot of my chest hair lately. I saw a dermatologist and he said its alopecia areata, so he put me on UV treatment for about 6 weeks, but it didnt help at all. Then I went to a homeopathic doctor, and after doing a thyroid test, my TSH was around 8. He gave me some meds, but still, nothings working. Can you tell me what's going on?
