Safest blood sugar slightly varies with each person depending on their age and other pre-existing health conditions.The American Diabetes Association recommends that the blood sugar 1 to 2 hours after the beginning of a meal be less than 180 mg/dl in any person.

I'm a bit worried because my T3 and T4 levels are normal, but my TSH is really high at 98 and my AntiTPO is 1440. I'm planning to see a doctor soon, but I'm curious to know if there's a way to reverse this autoimmune issue without having to take thyroxine if that's what the doctor suggests. Is there a different approach I might consider?

That is not possible ideally but can control the disease progress ,follow your doctors advice

I've been feeling a bit off lately and a friend mentioned it might be a vitamin D deficiency. Is there a specific test I can take to check for this? And what should the ideal levels be if I'm looking at the results?

Yes, a simple blood test, specifically the 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) test, can diagnose vitamin D deficiency; the ideal level is generally considered to be between 30-50 ngmL, with levels below 20 ngmL indicating deficiency, 21-29 ngmL indicating insufficiency, and above 50 ngmL potentially indicating toxicity
