Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I have type 2 diabetes, I have a very high metabolism along with hyperthyroidism. I take Tresiba and Nova Log for my diabetes, methimazole for the thyroid. My TSH to high and my T3/T4 are low. I m beginning to have neuropathy feelings in the ball of my feet like it s a sore under the skin of my foot. I need to know is there any way to heal my thyroid, heal my pancreas in a change of my diet. I don t think that the medicine is working. My A1C level I believe is 13. This battle is very frustrating to me I need help. How do I get the sugar out of my blood? I believe that my pancreas is functioning but not producing the amount if insulin that my body needs. I know Iodine Salt is good for the thyroid but I took salt out of my diet years ago before my present condition. Can t gain any weight because my metabolism is high. Very frustrated.
