I'm trying to wrap my head around my recent test results. I've been managing diabetes since 2008, but I'm worried because my latest fasting level is 188. I've also got very high VLDL, triglycerides through the roof, and low Vitamin D3. On top of that, my cholesterol is high too. It feels like everything's piling up, and I'm a bit overwhelmed. What could all this mean for my overall health, and what steps should I be taking to get these numbers down?

View allI did an IUI on February 15th, and my last period started on February 1st. I havent gotten my period yet, and the pregnancy test is negative. Im getting period-like cramps on and off, which is confusing because I'm usually pretty regular. Could you help me understand what's going on?
It is possible that the delay in your period and the presence of cramping could be due to various reasons such as hormonal imbalances, stress, changes in diet or exercise, or even the aftermath of the IUI procedure. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Medroxyprogesterone to help induce a period if deemed appropriate by your doctor.

I'm a bit confused and a little worried about my blood sugar levels. My fasting blood sugar is 122, and my postprandial is 95. I always thought the postprandial level should be higher than the fasting one. Can you help me understand why this might be happening and what treatment options would be best for me? Does this mean I'm diabetic or not? I would really appreciate some guidance on this.
