I'm a bit worried about my thyroid situation. I've been on Electroxin, taking 25 mcg and 50 mcg on alternate days, along with some homeopathic treatment. Recently, my blood test came back with a TSH level of 8.3, but my T3 and T4 levels are normal at 89 ngdl and 7.6 mgdl. I've had thyroid issues for the past 6 years and, initially, I was on 100 mcg of Electroxin. Over the past year, as I began homeo treatments, my doctor gradually reduced the dosage to where it is now. Should I be concerned about the TSH level, and what steps should I take next?

View allI'm concerned about my mom's health since she has type 2 diabetes and high BP. I'm wondering if it's okay for her to have coconut water and buttermilk every day. She's currently taking Glycomet GP2 for her sugar levels and Listril for her blood pressure. Would these drinks affect her medications or condition in any way?
Yes she can have it no problem

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.
