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?

I'm a 51-year-old with a weight of 62 kg, and I've been on 88 mcg of medication a day for hypothyroidism for the past 6 months. I just got my thyroid profile results, and they show my T3 is 0.98, T4 is 7.93, and TSH is 12.58. What should I do now?
-It seems your TSH level is still higher than the normal range, indicating that your thyroid may not be fully optimized with the current dosage of 88 mcg. I recommend discussing with your doctor about adjusting your medication or exploring other treatment

I'm trying to figure out what's best for my dad who's been dealing with Type 2 diabetes for about 20 years now. We found these ayurvedic tablets, IME9 and BGR34, made by Indian Labs, and are wondering which one might be better. My dad's on insulin and had bypass surgery 8 years ago. Any advice on whether either of these tablets could be helpful?
Rather than depending on ayurvedic medicine better to continue Insulin
