Hello
Frequent urination may be due to diabetes mellitus,UTI(urinary tract infection),enlarged prostate etc.
Your fasting blood sugar is raised.You may need post prandial blood sugar,glycosylated hemoglobin percentage.
You may need proper clinical examination and routine investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,renal and liver function test,ultrasound of abdomen,urine RE/ME and culture/sensitivity.
Proper treatment depend upon findings.
Pedal edema may be due to raised TSH. You are rightly suggested to take tablet thyroxine 50 microgram daily.
You may need to take hypoglycemic drugs for diabetes mellitus.
You should do exercise and avoid fatty food.
Get well soon.
