I'm a pre-diabetic breast cancer survivor with A1C=6.0 and am underweight (5' 2", 100 lbs). I want to lower my A1C and gain weight simultaneously. I'm lactose intolerant and currently consume coconut yogurt. I'm on Levothyroxine, Anastrozole, Famotidine, eyedrops (Timolol, Prolensa, Brinzolamide), and homeopathic & vitamin supplements. My gastroenterologist has me on a Low FODMAP diet, and my allergist recommends mostly chicken and tofu. How can I achieve my goals while considering these dietary restrictions and medications?

I have recently experienced an increase in frequency of urination over the past several months, from 4 times a day to about 8, usually every 3 hours. I am a diabetic and take pills, so I don't believe that is the cause, my blood sugar range is about 150. I have no other symptoms but an increase in urination, and I am not drinking excess liquids. I also take Azor for blood pressure. What could be causing this, and what tests should I consider?

I have a pain in my left arm that feels like a muscle ache. Should I be worried about it being related to my heart, especially since I had a stress test a few months ago? What could be causing this pain, and is an EKG necessary?
