Am a bit worried, I'm an 18-year-old with a vitamin D level of 12 and my doctor says I need to get the arachitol injection. I've heard it's really painful, and I'm honestly scared about getting it. Is there any way to make this less uncomfortable or maybe avoid the shot altogether?

Yes you have to take the injection,if you are really scared and you have no signs and symptoms of vitamin d deficiency you can opt for tablets as well like VIT D 60K weekly once and CALCIUM 500mg once daily

I'm a 34-year-old male, and I recently checked my random blood sugar level, which came out to be 153. Should I be worried about this? What does it mean for my health?

A random blood sugar level of 153 mgdL is considered elevated, but not necessarily indicative of diabetes; however, it's a red flag, especially for someone as young as 34, and warrants further evaluation, such as a fasting blood sugar test, HbA1c, or an oral glucose tolerance test, to determine if you're at risk for developing insulin resistance, prediabetes, or type 2 diabetes
