I accidentally took a double dose of my thyronorm 150 mcg today. What should I do about my next dose? Should I skip it, or is there something specific I should keep an eye out for? I'm a bit unsure about the next steps.

Can diabetics eat bananas?

Banana contains sugar and carbohydrates. But it is rich in fibre and has a low glycemic index. Diabetics can eat banana, but in moderation.

I'm a bit confused about my blood glucose levels. My fasting sugar came out higher than my reading two hours after eating. It was 155 fasting and 139 after a meal. At one point, my fasting level was 200, and a few days later, it dropped to 155. Why would my fasting sugar be higher than after a meal? Is this something to worry about?

It is not uncommon for blood glucose levels to be higher in the morning (fasting) compared to after a meal. This is due to the dawn phenomenon, where hormones released in the early morning hours cause blood sugar levels to rise. Additionally, if you had a high-carbohydrate meal the night before, it can also contribute to higher fasting blood sugar levels. To help manage your blood sugar levels, you can consider taking Metformin. It helps to improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
