Hi. Here Is My Medical Question . I Just Turned



Damaged glucose tolerance, check also thyroid.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
You have increased your physical activity and have been calculating calories and possibly trying to consume less calories so these are enough reasons to loose weight.
If you think it can be something else or a disease you have to wait for test results before panicking. It is a good sign that all doctor's examinations were normal toll now.
Loosing weight isn't the first and main sign of pancreatic and stomach cancer. The main symptoms can be jaundice, abdominal pain, vomiting, stomach pain etc.
The elevated glucose levels you had are not significant for diabetes but for damaged glucose tolerance. You may need to do post prandial glucose levels (glucose levels after eating) and HbA1c.
Ut can also be accompanied by need to drink more water and frequent urination.
In this case a low calories diet and exercises may help to stabilise glucose levels.
Also you should test thyroid hormone levels because hyperthyroidism may be a cause of loosing weight.
So as a conclusion loosing weight isn't enough symptom to suspect cancer, you are having damaged glucose tolerance and also should be checked for hyperthyroidism. Wait till your test results come out.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
