Confusion over diagnosis - Hypoglycaemia

My blood reports shows higher sugar level i.e. Fasting- 151 mg/DL (70-110) PP - 229 mg/DL (90-160) Glycated Haemoglobin(HBA1C)- 7.4% (3.5%-6.0%) But doctor has mentioned signs of Hypoglycaemia on report. Which as much as I know is the problem associated with low glucose level in blood. Please clarify my doubts as per my understanding Hypoglycaemia condition is when glucose level is Less than 70mg/DL in blood.

Hyperthyroidism

My7 46yr old daughter, Adele, has the above condition, with each symptom to the maximum. She has a nodule on thyroid gland. Her GP is not prepared to prescribe any medication, or pain relief - Adele suffers joint pain, is morbidly obese. I'd have thought a referral to an endocrinologist would be appropriate. Can you offer any advice?

Hypothyroidism

I just want to know if there is a "Cure". I take thyronorm 75mg everyday but I know that is not the cure, only a way to maintain TSH. Is it possible to activate the thyroid gland and thereby eliminate hypothyroidism altogether?
