Do not compare diet or life styles with other patients. Each Diabetic patient is different and each one needs a targeted personalised treatment approach.

View allI'm a 19-year-old guy, and I'm about 5'4". I've been looking into ways to grow taller and came across something called SBL Rite-Hite. I'm curious about how I should be taking it. Could you suggest the right dosage for me? Also, any tips on how I can increase my height at this age would be really helpful.
For height growth, consider ORTHOPAEDICIAN before taking any supplements like SBL Right Hite; however, here are some general tips to support height growth: maintain a balanced diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, and protein, exercise regularly, focusing on stretching and strengthening exercises like yoga or Pilates, get adequate sleep (7-9 hours), manage stress, and consider incorporating height-promoting nutrients like zinc, magnesium, and vitamin B12 into your diet.

I'm a bit worried about my recent thyroid function test results. They did the tests on 04062016 and my T3 level came back as 1.09 ngml, which I know falls somewhere within the normal 0.72-2.02 ngml range. But here's where I get confused my T4 was 8.38 ugdl and TSH was 5.61 uIUml. I understand that T4 seems to be okay within the normal 4.3-12.5 ugdl range, but my TSH level is above the normal 0.4-4.2 uIUml range. Do you think I should start medication based on these results? I'm anxious about what this might mean for my health.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having chest pain and her ECG was abnormal, but her echo and TMT came out okay. Her blood tests showed she has diabetes and her thyroid level was at 10. The doctor gave her meds for the sugar and thyroid issues, but she's still in pain. What could be going on, and what should we do next?
I'm sorry to hear about your mother's continuing chest pain. Given that her ECG was abnormal but the echocardiogram (echo) and treadmill test (TMT) were normal, it's important to explore other potential causes of her chest pain, such as gastrointestinal issues, musculoskeletal problems, or anxiety. Since she has been diagnosed with diabetes and thyroid issues, it's critical to manage these conditions properly, as they can sometimes contribute to chest pain. I recommend a follow-up with her healthcare provider to reassess her symptoms, review her medication regimen, and possibly consider additional tests like a chest X-ray or a consultation with a gastroenterologist depending on her symptoms.
