I've always had extremely thin wrists and forearms since childhood while the rest of my body has normal fat. No diet or exercise seems to help. Are there any quick and lasting medical treatments or surgeries that can fix this issue?

View allI've been feeling really thirsty for about a year now, and I'm starting to worry a bit. My dad had diabetes, so I got tested to see if that was the issue, but the blood sugar came back normal. The tests did show that my Vitamin D3 levels are on the low side and my alkaline phosphatase levels are higher than they should be. I'm a 53-year-old guy, and I'm curious about what might be causing these higher alkaline phosphatase levels in my blood. Would you have any ideas?
go with liver function tests ,and if you are alcoholic stop consuming alcohol

Surgery opinion is advised for excision of the cysts.

I've been dealing with diabetes for almost 17 years, and I can't seem to keep my blood sugar levels in checkthey usually sit between 180 and 240, both fasting and postprandial. On top of that, I have trouble sleeping and often wake up feeling groggy and exhausted. What can I do to better control my sugar levels?
Focus on a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Limit your intake of sugary and processed foods. Aim for regular physical activity such as brisk walking for at least 30 minutes a day. Establish a bedtime routine to improve your sleep quality. Avoid screens before bed, create a comfortable sleep environment, and aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night. Regularly monitor your blood sugar levels throughout the day and keep a log to track patterns. This will help you and your doctor make informed decisions about your treatment plan. Remember, these are general recommendations. It's important to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and adjustments to your diabetes management plan.
