I'm 42 and my blood sugar is at 164. My feet have this burning sensation, and I've been feeling really weak. What could be causing this, and what can I do to feel better?

Your blood sugar level of 164 indicates uncontrolled diabetes, which can lead to symptoms like burning feet and weakness. To help manage your symptoms, I recommend taking Metformin 500mg twice daily before meals to control your blood sugar levels. Additionally, you can take Vitamin B12 supplements to help with the burning sensation in your feet. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm noticing that my body always feels warm and seems to emit heat, even though I don't have a fever. My urine is also warm. This has been going on for quite a while. Any ideas on what might be causing this or how I can address it would be really appreciated. I've been diagnosed with low vitamin D and B12 levels and am currently taking supplements for those.

Your persistent bodily warmth, heat emission, and warm urine without fever could be related to various factors, including hyperthyroidism, hormonal imbalances, or increased metabolism, and it's good that you're addressing low vitamin D and B12 levels, but consider consulting an endocrinologist to rule out underlying conditions, and in the meantime, stay hydrated, avoid spicy foods, and dress comfortably to manage your body temperature.
