I'm really concerned about my mother's thyroid test results and was hoping you could help me understand them. Her T3 reading is 2.79 ngml, T4 is 22.1 ugdl, and TSH is 0.015 uIUml. Does this mean there's something wrong with her thyroid? Also, we did a sugar test, and her fasting glucose level was 118, and post meal it was 175. Is this enough to diagnose diabetes? I'm worried and just want to make sure we're taking the right steps.

I'm a bit worried about my mom since she's diabetic. If she ever needs it, can she take ORS safely without any issues? With everything so uncertain these days, I'm just trying to be cautious.
Yes, it is generally safe for your mother to take ORS if needed, as it helps to rehydrate and replenish lost electrolytes. However, since she is diabetic, it's important to choose an ORS with low sugar content and monitor her blood sugar levels closely during use. Always consult her doctor for personalized advice.
