I'm a bit worried about my recent fasting blood sugar level, which came out to be 87 mgdL. Also, my mom's result was 98.97. I'm around 6 feet tall and weigh about 100 kg. With these numbers, do I have prediabetes? And what about my mom? Is she at risk too? What steps should we take?

I just found out my TSH level is 9.25, but I read that the normal range is around 5.5. I'm not sure what to do next. Is there any medication I should consider? By the way, I'm breastfeeding my 8-month-old baby. I'm a bit worried about how this might affect my health and my ability to care for my child. What would you recommend?

A TSH value of 9.25 is slightly above the normal range, indicating potential hypothyroidism. Since you're breastfeeding, it's important to consult your doctor to assess whether medication is needed. They may recommend further thyroid function tests and suggest a treatment plan that is safe during breastfeeding.
