Itching on fingers of hands and legs

I am getting severe itching on my fingers , mostly legs after two hours of eating. I'm not diabetic. My sugar levels are normal. However, the itching, most of the time subsides immediately after taking food. This problem persists since February 2025. I have seen couple of gastro specialists as I have gall bladder stones for 15 years and the itching is always move around my acidity issues. Slowly I am getting allergic to many foods and not able to pinpoint any food. I have been to couple of dermatologists who have administered elastin, Allegra and now Allerone. Nothing is providing me any sort of permanent relief. Whom should I consult? I am a resident of Chennai.

Urgent issue about my Diabetes Type 2

I have done hba1c test from Agilus diagnostic on 6 June 2026, it was 5.8 (FBS - 106) . Again on 21 July 2026, I did Hba1c test from Agilus diagnostic and result is 5.5 and FBS - 115. I doubt these both results because of below mentioned points :- 1. I am diabetic type 2 patient from last 4 years. 2. I have taken treatment only once in last 4 years when my Hba1c was peak at around 11.7 in June 2025. I have taken medicines from June 2025 to October 2025 and stopped medicines when my Hba1c was 5.5 and FBS - 98 as per doctor's advice. 3. From June 2025 ( When my treatment was started ) and till now, I am on very strict diet as required for diabetics mangement. 4. But from last 1 month, I think my symptoms has started showing again like urge for pee every 1-2 hours, urge for pee in midnight, itching on foot. Etc. Please help me out about what should I do next because test results are not matching with symptoms.

Fasting Sugar Low, Hba1c 5.7

My fasting glucose was 70 mg/dL, but HbA1c was 5.7%. After 3–4 months of intermittent fasting/OMAD, HbA1c was still 5.8%. I was on mirtazapine 60 mg. My CBC showed Hb 14.9, RBC 5.89 million, MCV 76.4, MCH 25.3, RDW 16. Iron studies: serum iron 93 µg/dL, TIBC 305 µg/dL, transferrin saturation 30.5%, ferritin 88 ng/mL. Could this HbA1c be falsely elevated due to possible thalassemia trait or other RBC factors, or does this suggest true prediabetes despite a fasting glucose of 70?

Thyroid medication

My thyroid levels are under control at 2.589 (TSH) But my doctor suggested that I take Thyronorm 50 mcg daily. I have been doing that for four years now. I take the tablet at 8 am on empty stomach. It is a bit inconvenient for me. Can I take it in the evening say at 5 pm daily. I eat dinner at around 9.30 pm. In between, I drink juice during badminton at 8 pm and eat a small bite of brownie at 7.45 pm. Please advise if it is ok to take the tablet at 5 pm. Thanks.
