[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2096938, member: 85785"] Hi [USER=510841]@Casssiexo[/USER] and welcome to the forum. I don't know if I can help you, I started this thread because it really interested me because of the very same similar symptoms to what I had experienced before I got a true diagnosis, I thought that if others seen this thread, then they would realise that such a condition was known and they weren't being hypochondriac. I haven't got a clue what conditions you may have. The main reason is you need a series of tests to get a true diagnosis of why you are getting the symptoms. An awful lot of conditions have similar symptoms in the endocrine system. Until each condition is eliminated, a true diagnosis is far away. I concur that if you are experiencing such symptoms and episodes of blood sugar deregulation, then you definitely need a referral to a specialist endocrinologist who has experience with these types of endocrine conditions. If you have read any of the threads in this sub forum of hypoglycaemia, you will find that keeping a record of what is happening to you, before and after food, taking readings from a glucometer, a food diary, to show your doctors and if your account is very unusual it will help get that referral. You need a glucometer. In the meantime, it would not hurt if you lowered your carbs intake and stopped drinking sugary drinks, beer, only eat what doesn't upset you or gives you the symptoms. Having anxiety is not a pleasant experience, I know first-hand, what it's like. Trying to explain why the thoughts you have are and will question everything you do and think, second guessing yourself, judgment of what you do, not willing to do something, hiding yourself away, easier not to face the world. Can't risk upsetting someone. Have you asked your GP about the anxiety? Have you considered that it could be panic attacks? They do have similar symptoms! Idiopathic post prandial syndrome is quite rare and most specialists probably would not recognise the condition or how to get a true diagnosis, never mind treat the condition. Always remember that this forum, didn't have our sub forum for Hypoglycaemia or similar conditions, not many including myself knew it existed, rare conditions like mine have few if any, advice or suggestions for treatment because of lack of research, everything since diagnosis, I have discovered myself, with the help I received from my questions to the knowledgeable people on here.. I would never have guessed that the normal modern diet that was making me ill! Even the dietary advice from the endocrinologist still included the food that I was intolerant to. My only advice about your symptoms is don't give up, provide evidence that backs your symptoms, a food diary. Find out your food intolerance, I have many including dairy, wheat, grains, potatoes! Anything that has carbs. Be sensible about your diet and drinking. Do let us know how you get on. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
