I'm a bit concerned about my blood sugar levels. My latest HbA1c result was 5.2 and my fasting blood sugar was 104, with a mean plasma glucose of 102.5. I'm trying to figure out if these numbers are within the normal range or if I should be worried. Could you help clarify this for me?

A fasting blood sugar level of 104 mgdL is slightly above the normal range. The normal range for fasting blood sugar is typically considered to be less than 100 mgdL. Since your HB1AC is 5.2, which is within the normal range, and your mean plasma glucose is 102.5 mgdL, it is recommended to monitor your blood sugar levels closely. You may consider making lifestyle changes such as increasing physical activity and following a healthy diet. In some cases, medication such as Metformin may be prescribed to help manage blood sugar levels.

My mother is 65 and has a large, soft, painless lipoma in the middle of her upper stomach. It's been slowly growing, and since she also has diabetes, we're worried about surgery. Are there any permanent Ayurveda or homeopathy treatments that can dissolve the fatty lump from the root so it doesn't come back? We'd really prefer to avoid surgery.
The effectiveness of treatment depends on the specific condition and individual response. Some mild cases may improve with alternative therapies, but more serious issues might need conventional medical or surgical treatment. It's best to consult both specialists for a balanced approach.

I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I had an IVF procedure on August 26th, and on September 9th, my beta hCG level was 44.34. I repeated the same test later that day, and it went up to 51.80. Then, two days later, it rose to 97.79. Am I pregnant? Please help me understand what's going on.
