I just checked my sugar levels two hours after eating, and its at 220. I'm really worried about this. Could you suggest what medication I should take for this? Also, what are some effective ways to keep my sugar levels in check?

Since the monkey's teeth touched your skin without blood, the risk of rabies transmission is low but not zero.
Recommendation
- Monitor for symptoms: Watch for signs of rabies, such as fever, headache, or numbnesstingling around the wound.
- Consult a doctor: Visit a doctor or a hospital immediately to assess the risk and determine if post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is necessary.
- PEP might be recommended: Depending on the doctor's assessment, you might receive rabies immunoglobulin and a series of rabies vaccinations as a precautionary measure.
TT injection: Since you've already taken the TT (tetanus toxoid) injection, you're protected against tetanus.

View allI was diagnosed with thyroid issues back in 2008, and my TSH level was 5.2. Initially, I was on 75 mcg of thyronorm for a year, and then my TSH level dropped to 3.1, so my doctor changed my dose to 50 mcg. I've been taking that ever since. I recently got my TSH checked again, and it's now 2.39. My doctor suggested I stick with the same dosage. Is that alright? I'm feeling tired all the time, and I'm wondering if it's the dosage or something else entirely. Can you give me some advice?
Since your TSH level is currently 2.39, which is within the normal range, it indicates that your current dosage of 50mcg of thyronorm is appropriate for you. However, feeling tired all the time could be due to various reasons, including thyroid issues or other health conditions. Considering your symptoms of persistent tiredness, it would be advisable to discuss this with your doctor. They may want to evaluate other factors such as your T3 and T4 levels, as well as assess for any other underlying causes of fatigue. Additionally, they may consider adjusting your medication dosage or investigating other potential reasons for your fatigue. In the meantime, make sure you are maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, balanced diet, and adequate sleep. If you experience any new or worsening symptoms, do not hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned after reading my report that suggests I have thyronormalcy. Does this mean I might be showing signs of thyroid issues? I've noticed my blood sugar levels dropping to around 75 sometimes, and I've been getting dents in my right leg. Plus, my vision gets blurry at times. Could these things be related? Should I be worried about any of this?
Your report suggests euthyroidism (normal thyroid function), but you're experiencing symptoms that could be related to thyroid issues, such as blurred vision, dents in your leg (possibly related to fat or muscle loss), and low blood sugar (75 PP); however, these symptoms can also be caused by other factor

Is blood sugar in the 180-220 range bad?
A blood sugar reading of more than 180 mg/dL or any reading above your target range is too high. A blood sugar reading of 300 mg/dL or more can be dangerous. If you have 2 readings in a row of 300 or more, call your doctor.
