I've been dealing with this burning sensation in my hands and feet, and it just seems to zap my energy all day long. Plus, there's this persistent throat pain that won't go away. I find myself getting depressed and angry really quickly. Could all these things be related somehow, and what should I do?

I've been checking my blood sugar at home with a glucometer, and I got 99 before eating. Then, 2 hours after having lunchwhich was mainly a maida wrap, chocolate cake, and ice creamit shot up to 151, and 3 hours later, it was 148. Is this something I should be worried about?

Your current readings are slightly higher than normal but not alarmingly high. However, its important to monitor your blood sugar over time, especially after consuming foods high in refined sugars. If these numbers become more consistent, it's worth discussing with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues like insulin resistance or pre-diabetes.

I've been experiencing some sudden changes lately that have me a bit worried. I've gained weight unexpectedly, and on top of that, I've developed rashes on my hands. My hair is starting to gray, I've been dealing with headaches and acidity issues, and my ability to concentrate and grasp information seems to have reduced. I'm also feeling really fatigued. Could these symptoms be related, and what might be causing all of these changes?
