Your thyroid levels are high as suspected, and you have underlying Grave's disease as we discussed which is causing the overactive thyroid condition. Let's start a medication called methimazole. Please take one tablet twice daily. The blood sugar is normal, but the 3 months average of your sugars, hemoglobin A1c, is mildly elevated at 5.9%. I think this is partly due to the overactive thyroid gland. We will continue to follow it. Your random blood sugar, however, is normal. Lastly vitamin D level is low; I will send a prescription to Walgreen's for you to take vitamin D twice a week for 3 months. Please be sure to get refills to complete full 3 months. Please follow up again in 6 weeks so we can reevaluate your thyroid status.
