[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1607732, member: 85785"] Hi [USER=448809]@benjo123456[/USER] Welcome to our forum. Your doctor hasn't got a clue, mate. People do have Hypoglycaemia for so many reasons although the majority it is insulin the main cause, but like myself I don't inject, but I do and will hypo if my dietary balance of carbs (baddies), protein and the good fats is right for you. Because of my experience and experimentation of blood glucose monitoring since 2012, and a food diary full of information, to get my health back and stop the dreadful symptoms and prevent the hypos. I have had the battle to get a true diagnosis, I had to finally convince my GP to refer me and luckily enough, I got referred to a specialist endocrinologist who recognised the symptoms and I got the tests for that diagnosis. If you can get over the initial bad hunger, stopping the high carbs and change to a healthy diet for you. The benefits are really great. But it is not easy, it's a daily battle of trying to stop something you have been doing all your life, it's not east but it is possible. If you have ever had to give up something it is similarly difficult. But do take it slowly. Do it constructively, lower your carbs by about ten percent a day until you are comfortable at a lower level, then if you are ok at that point, then stay there. Once the symptoms lift, then try lowering again. It is what you believe is best for you. To start, I would eat small meals every three hours, however you choose, with a small portion of rice in one or two, if you wish. If you do eat fruit, only berries or half an Apple, but no citrus, small and low GI to start, then see how you do by monitoring. I had terrible anxiety and a lot more symptoms that I didn't even know I had. Anger, rage, forgetfulness, eyes, shaking, sweating, and like you so emotional! I have got my life back and I very low carb, I have sacrificed the carbs, to be healthy, I'm never hungry, I don't suffer the symptoms, I don't hypo! It can be done. Keep asking knowledge is so important in understanding what you are going through and why! Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
