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?

I'm really worried about my mom's diabetes treatment. She used to be on Ryzodeg 20 units and Human Actrapid 8 units, but because Ryzodeg is so expensive, our doctor suggested we switch to Lantus with the same dosage. I'm not sure if this substitute and dosage are the right decision for her condition. Could you please advise on whether this is the right approach?
