I'm trying to wrap my head around my recent test results. I've been managing diabetes since 2008, but I'm worried because my latest fasting level is 188. I've also got very high VLDL, triglycerides through the roof, and low Vitamin D3. On top of that, my cholesterol is high too. It feels like everything's piling up, and I'm a bit overwhelmed. What could all this mean for my overall health, and what steps should I be taking to get these numbers down?

I'm a 24-year-old woman, and I'm about 5 feet tall. I'm really hoping to add a little extra height, maybe even 2 inches if possible. I've heard exercise might help, but I'm curious if there are any healthy alternatives. My parents aren't very tall either, so I feel like this might be a genetic issue. Is there any chance for growth at 24, or am I out of luck? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
