Hey, my blood sugar level is at 142, and I'm a bit concerned about it. Should I be worried? Could you give me some guidance on what steps I should take next?
A blood sugar level of 142 mgdL indicates prediabetes or impaired glucose tolerance; while it's not extremely high, it's essential to take proactive steps to manage your blood sugar levels and prevent progression to diabetes; consider consulting your doctor, who may recommend lifestyle changes, such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, weight management, and stress reduction, and may also suggest regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels and potentially prescribe medication or supplements to help regulate your blood sugar.

I'm a bit worried about my height because I'm 16 and only 5'3". My dad is around 5'7" or 5'8" and my mom's height ranges between 5'4" and 5'3". I've heard that having a beard at a young age might mean I'm done growing taller, and I have a lot of facial hair. My doctor mentioned that my hand growth plates are fused. Does this mean I can't get any taller or is there still a chance I might grow more?
No
