Default Good Evening All......I have test results......

I got the test results from the GTT I had done 2 weeks ago. I don't have diabetes but do have blood sugar that gets really wacky because of my gastric bypass. An hr after drinking the Glucose my blood sugar was at 233 then after the 3rd test it was at 5! Yep 5! We talked with the dr.s PA last week and she was going to talk with the Endocrinologist and see if he wants me on a medication to keep it more level all the time.
My Vit. D level is still low "21" when normal is between 30-60. I was first told it was low a year ago when I first started having the Neuropathy pain. I've been taking 3000mg of Vit. D for the past 3 months but that hasn't raised my level. The dr. said I may have to take 5000mg a week now....and that's a prescription.
I also got the results from the Thyroid test. The Thyroid Perodixase AB number is a little high "38". So I have to have that checked every 3 months now. The Peptide number is 4.5. The SGPT (ALT) number is also high 57.
I have to have another test done this week.....some thyroid scan to see if it's "hot or cold".
Does anyone have any advice about any of these numbers??
Hope everyone is having a good weekend!
