I'm a 45-year-old guy with a pretty sedentary lifestyle since I have a desk job, and I'm dealing with hypothyroidism. My TSH is at 14, T3 is 0.8, and T4 is 5.9. I've been taking Thyronorm 25mg but not very consistently. I dont have a lot of physical symptoms, but I do feel lethargic and just can't seem to get motivated to exercise. Should I think about switching brands or adjusting the dosage? Also, is there a particular time of day that's better for taking this medication? And how often should I be getting my TSH levels checked?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's diabetic and takes glycomet cr500. I'm trying to understand if she's type 1 or type 2 diabetic. Also, I've heard about ime 9can it completely cure diabetes, or does it only help keep it under control?

Glycomet CR-500 is a medication typically prescribed for Type 2 diabetes; Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed at a younger age and requires insulin therapy, whereas Type 2 diabetes is often managed through lifestyle changes and oral medications like metformin (Glycomet); while Type 2 diabetes can be managed and controlled, it's considered a chronic condition, and there is no known "complete cure," but with proper treatment, lifestyle modifications, and regular monitoring, blood sugar levels can be effectively controlled.
