View allI'm concerned about my blood sugar levels. My fasting blood sugar is 155, and my postprandial is 167, but my HbA1c is 6.4. I'm currently taking Glycomate GP 1 gm daily, but it doesn't seem to be controlling my sugar levels effectively. Can you suggest any other medications or adjustments I should consider? Also, when would be the best time for me to take them?

My wife was just diagnosed with a pituitary microadenoma measuring 4.1x6x5.2 mm on her MRI. Can this be treated with medication or will she need surgery? I'm really worried about what the next steps should be.
A pituitary microadenoma, especially one as small as 4.1x6x5.2 mm, is often managed without immediate surgery, and medication may be sufficient. Your wife will likely need follow-up imaging and potentially hormone testing to determine if the tumor is causing hormone imbalances or is actively growing. The best course of action will depend on a multidisciplinary team of experts, including a neurosurgeon, endocrinologist, and possibly an ophthalmologist.

I'm a bit worried about my thyroid test results and was hoping you could help me understand them. My FT3 level came back at 3.47, FT4 is 1.12, and my TSH level is 5.16. Should I be considering regular medications for this? What do you recommend?
FT3 and FT4 are normal and TSh is slightly above the normal range. Reduce eating Cauli flower and increase iodine contain in foods
