Can sitagliptin/metformin 50/500 1 tab once day be given to patient in prediabetic range?
72 year, weight 52 kg. Hba1c is 6.4. FBS remains normal. PPBS around 130-140-143. Has early compensated liver cirrhosis. Normal creatinine. Hypertension.
Dr who prescribed also said to increase the dose. I hv heard prediabetes can b managed on metformin alone but not sure. No proper response from dr.

I am 40Y old . My father 75 has diabetes . In may month my hb1ac was 6, fasting sugar 93, fructosamine -215 ( lab test)pp was 130 .yesterday I ate white rice dal and potataies at 7 pm . It was full plate .My pp came out to be 174. First time my pp is like this . Next day fasting was 104. both pp and fasting on glucometerHave I progressed to diabetes within 2 months . I was eating one full mango everyday after dinner may be it can be the cause but my 174 reading was without mango( i didnt eat mango that day ). I am going for walk after dinner since in nuclear family and having toddler plue 8 to 5 job it is difficult to maintain much diet. I am too much stressed. Kindly guide me. I know i have to be careful but sudden high numbers are stressing me

I was getting throat infections often, so I went and saw an ENT specialist. He immediately asked me to do a CT scan for sinus - PNS CT scan. He gave medicines too. The next day I went to the scan center, there were many warning signs. Even the nurse said it has radiation. Even ChatGPT said CT scan has radiation and shouldn't be done unnecessarily. I should have said, I will think about it and come tomorrow. But I paid the money then they asked to sign a paper that they are not responsible for any side effects. Then the report came back and the doctor said no sinus problem. But I feel extremely anxious about the side effects. I read so many articles online and they said even one CT scan can increase the cancer risk in future especially in women who are younger. I am around 25 years old, female. I asked the doctor and he gave me an anti-depressant but I am still not convinced. I am still feeling extremely lost. I feel like I spoiled my future. Please someone help me from this mental pain
