I'm really worried about my brother. He's 27 years old, stands 6ft tall, and has suddenly lost 10kgs in the past two months despite no changes in his eating habits. Now he's down to 56kgs. What could be causing such a drastic weight loss? It's quite concerning, and I hope to understand what might be going on.

I've been noticing that I'm sighing a lot, like every 5 to 10 minutes I'm taking a deep breath. Occasionally I can't seem to get a full deep breath. This started about 4 days ago and it's got me a bit worried. I don't have any chest pain, and my normal breathing is fine. Do you think this could be an allergy thing, something with my lungs, or maybe even my heart? I'm also yawning frequently. For context, I weigh 80 kg and I'm 169 cm tall. I have hypothyroidism and I'm on 25 mcg of thyronorm. Could any of this be linked?

it might be because of anxiety, kindly reduce your weight and your anxiety

I'm trying to understand why my postprandial sugar levels are lower than my fasting levels. I've been monitoring my sugar, and it's concerning since my fasting sugar reads around 122-130 and my PP is usually between 102-110. A couple of years back, my PP was 180 and fasting was at 146 during a check-up. I made some lifestyle changes and managed to bring my weight down from 83 to 71 kg, cut out direct sugar, switched to millets from rice, and I'm eating more veggies and dal. My recent HBA1C is at 5.9, and it has been below 6.3 over the last two years. I also walk about 4 km five days a week. I'm not currently on any medication. Do you think medication might be necessary? Would love your guidance on this.

while postprandial (PP) levels are lower, which could be due to various factors, such as improved insulin sensitivity from weight loss and dietary changes, or potentially, an early sign of hypoglycemia unawareness; given your HbA1c levels have been consistently below 6.3, medication may not be immediately necessary, but your doctor may recommend more frequent blood glucose monitoring, adjustments to your diet or exercise routine, or further testing to rule out any underlying conditions.
