[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1195421, member: 85785"] I do think that exercise is better than just sitting around and falling asleep even if you are really knackered. It must mess up your sleep patterns. I think sleep is so important to give you your energy for the day ahead. Carbs are carbs, and if carbs do trigger the reaction then you can't eat them. I've had that sort of advice for well over fifteen years and they are so wrong. If you have a fructose trigger, then there are other ways to get the nutrients that you are missing, there are always alternatives. My foods are slightly more diverse than what you have stated and the only way you know what you can eat is by testing, so a blood glucose monitor is paramount in getting the control we need. I would revisit your GP and also get a referral to see an endocrinologist who deals with hypoglycaemia and particularly RH. Mine is great and understands all the problems we face. Get your GP to make an exception for you to get your testing strips. You need them. There is nothing obvious in your diet that I can see is causing, unless your insulin resistance and insulin is more than you need in your blood. Have you ever tried fasting! This helps me to give my pancreas a rest and clears my head after a week in work. And it gives you a time not to keep eating the same things. Keep asking, someone will come up with something.
