I just found out from a test that my sugar level is 275, and I'm kind of worried. I have an appointment with my doctor in a week, but I'm unsure what to do until then. Should I see a doctor right away? Are there any precautions I should be taking in the meantime?

If its the first time your sugar has come high, retest. Better get fasting and post lunch done. If the values are high you can go for online consultation here and start meds.

View allI'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.

Whats the ideal vitamin D range for women? I got my vitamin D levels checked today and theyre at 44. Based on this, should I be considering any supplements? Also, I sometimes take Shelcal HD on and off.
The normal vitamin D range for women is typically between 30 to 50 ngmL. Since your vitamin D level is 44 ngmL, it falls within the normal range. However, if you have symptoms of vitamin D deficiency or if your doctor recommends it, you can consider taking supplements. Shelcal HD is a good calcium supplement, but for vitamin D supplementation, you can consider taking "D-rise" 60,000 IU once a week for 8 weeks followed by "Uprise D3" 60,000 IU once a month. Be sure to follow your doctor's advice regarding supplementation.
