[QUOTE="lindisfel, post: 934586, member: 57698"] Just joined thread, thanks. I have had RH for years but only recently have been able to put a name to it and find a strategy to, perhaps, cope effectively. For me +2hr meter measurement only tells a fragment of the story because I peak almost immediately after a meal and was not testing BG at +1hr. T2 with hba1c steady at 45 after cutting down on carbs (but not enough!). Was diagnosed with Conn's syndrome a year ago, perhaps had Conn's 30 years. Eg. I produce many times the normal amount of an hormone called aldosterone, this hormone, in excess, causes insulin resistance, it, I believe, eventually impairs the bodies system to cope with glucose. However, it also damages many systems in the body (heart and kidneys especially) and causes intractable htn due to sodium retention in tissue and often, potassium depletion. (I actually try to keep my sodium intake below 500mgs/day.) So salt to me is toxic. Regarding dreams? Yes I had lucid dreams (where I was aware I was dreaming) and sleep paralysis for many years but not in recent years. Has anyone any thoughts if these high low glucose swings could cause a fatty liver...re:GGT high? regards [/QUOTE]
