Management of Diabetes

[nkgargmga]

My wife aged 53yrs,weight 67kg,is diabetic for the last 7 years. She is also suffering from hyperthyroidism I. e TSH level is a bit high. She is on daily medication as prescribed. What else extra she should do to get saved from chronic organ damages.

Check FBS or PPBS daily and avoid or reduce foods that cause high blood sugar.

Engage in morning or evening walk daily along with your wife for 30 minutes.

If TCH is high, it should be hypothyroidism and not hyperthyroidism.

I hope she is taking Thyronorm 50 mcg. (for hypothyroidism)

Consult your doctor every 3 months.
