Question 1

Today, I received my blood test report, and my fasting blood sugar level is 107. This is the first time my sugar level has been high; two months ago, it was only 80. I am 30 years old and have been using some hormone medications for infertility over the past two months. What tests should I get done now, and does this mean I am diabetic?

Question 2

I have had jock itch for the last 2 years. It goes away temporarily if I take medicine for about 7 days, but it comes back within 15 days. I cannot sleep properly at night and feel uncomfortable during the day at the office. I have now shifted to Ayurvedic medicines, but it is taking longer, and the itch is still there. I did some blood tests, which show my CBC count is low. My Ayurveda doctor said this means I have a weak immune system, which is why I get infections continuously. I also have thyroid with TSH 8.45. Can Ayurveda help me? Is this because of a weak immune system? I just want to get rid of the jock itch first. Please help.

Question 3

What should you eat before a blood test to ensure good results?

My blood sugar levels are not controlled according to my recent reports. My fasting blood sugar is 125, postprandial is 279, and HbA1c is 9.2. I am currently taking Exterm GM Forte as my medication. Please advise me on what I should do next.

These readings show that sugar is not well controlled currently. Your doctor may adjust the dose or add another medicine. Lifestyle changes (low-carb diet, daily walk) will help bring numbers down.
