I've been dealing with a pituitary macroadenoma for 10 years and have been on cabergoline 0.5 mg twice a week since 2016 to manage it. The tumor size hasn't reduced and has stayed the same for the last 3 years. I've been getting treatment at AIIMS since 2014 but really don't want to go for another transcranial surgery since I've already had two before. The meds or hormonal imbalance have also caused low libido and slower semen regeneration. I've tried Poona Hospital, SGPGI Lucknow, and now AIIMS but I'm exhausted from all the medications. Is there any way to remove this tumor completely without another major surgery? Currently taking Wysolone 2.5-5 mg on alternate days, Thyronorm 100 mg daily, and cabergoline 0.5 mg twice a week. What are my options now?

View allMy dad has had type 2 diabetes for 15 years since he was 45 and also had bypass surgery. He's been on insulin all this time. I came across BGR34 tablets, which claim to be approved by the Indian government and developed by CSIR and NBRI labs. Is this medicine legit? Has it been proven to control blood sugar levels effectively? And is it safe for someone like my dad who's already on insulin?
BGR34 is an Ayurvedic formulation with limited scientific validation—safe if taken with insulin but not a replacement.

I've been dealing with this weird fruity smell on my breath and skin for about 13 months now, and my sweat has this strange syrupy scent too. My friend noticed it, and everything I read online points to diabetes. I had a full blood count done 3 months ago, and it came back fine, even with fasting. I'm really worried about thisdo you think I should see a doctor? I'm not having any other symptoms really, and I know I'm a self-diagnosed hypochondriac, but this just seems like it could be diabetes. What do you think?

Hey, my blood sugar level is at 142, and I'm a bit concerned about it. Should I be worried? Could you give me some guidance on what steps I should take next?
A blood sugar level of 142 mgdL indicates prediabetes or impaired glucose tolerance; while it's not extremely high, it's essential to take proactive steps to manage your blood sugar levels and prevent progression to diabetes; consider consulting your doctor, who may recommend lifestyle changes, such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, weight management, and stress reduction, and may also suggest regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels and potentially prescribe medication or supplements to help regulate your blood sugar.
