Blood sugar of 140 to 199 mg/dL 2 hours post meals indicates prediabetes.

  1. Blood Sugar Level Interpretation:

    • A blood sugar level of 150 mg/dL is higher than the normal fasting range.
    • Normal fasting levels are below 100 mg/dL; 100-125 mg/dL indicates prediabetes.
  2. Postprandial Consideration:

    • If the reading was post-meal, it might be less concerning but still requires attention.
    • Post-meal levels are typically under 140 mg/dL.
  3. Next Steps:

    • Discuss this result with your healthcare provider for evaluation.
    • Consider further testing if necessary.
  4. Symptoms to Watch:

    • Increased thirst, frequent urination, or unexplained weight loss should prompt medical advice.
  5. Lifestyle Recommendations:

    • Maintain a balanced diet and regular exercise for blood sugar control.

I'm really worried because I've got a nodule in the left lobe of my thyroid that's about 4x4 cm, and my T3, T4, and TSH levels are normal. There's also a smaller 1x1 cm nodule in the right lobe. The FNAC results advised a papillary cluster with chewing gum colloid and no nuclear groves. They mentioned excision biopsy to rule out papillary carcinoma. I'm trying to understand if this could be cancer or if it's benign. I'm really concerned about whether surgery is my only option or if there are other treatments available. Could you please guide me on what I should do?

only surgery is the option. it is a benign cancer

I'm really confused about something and need your help. So, a couple of weeks ago, I was diagnosed with PCOS and my doctor prescribed me Metsmail and Chirocyst to take after meals. After just a week, I've already lost 2 kg. I've been trying to control my diet during this time, too. Do you think this weight loss is because of the medication or more likely because of my diet changes? I just want to understand what's really having more effect here.

due to food

I'm really concerned because my TSH level is 4.01, but I haven't had any issues with my periods; they come every 30 days like clockwork, and I've had no other thyroid symptoms before. My doctor put me on Thyronorm 25mcg, and now I'm experiencing some worrying changes. My periods are delayed, and Im constantly feeling exhausted and down, almost like I'm a bit depressed all the time. Are these side effects from the medication? What should I do next?

no
