View allI'm a bit confused about my blood glucose levels. My fasting sugar came out higher than my reading two hours after eating. It was 155 fasting and 139 after a meal. At one point, my fasting level was 200, and a few days later, it dropped to 155. Why would my fasting sugar be higher than after a meal? Is this something to worry about?
It is not uncommon for blood glucose levels to be higher in the morning (fasting) compared to after a meal. This is due to the dawn phenomenon, where hormones released in the early morning hours cause blood sugar levels to rise. Additionally, if you had a high-carbohydrate meal the night before, it can also contribute to higher fasting blood sugar levels. To help manage your blood sugar levels, you can consider taking Metformin. It helps to improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

I've noticed my breast size is really small, measuring at just 30 with a small cup size. I'm curious if there are any medications that can help increase them, as I'm really not keen on going for surgery. What options do I have?

I'm thinking about taking Bandy Plus for deworming. Should I take it on an empty stomach in the morning or after dinner? Also, I'm on Eltroxin 100mg for hypothyroidism. Would it be safe to take both?
