[QUOTE="lozzinthespace, post: 1788454, member: 473929"] I have had Reactive Hypoglycemia now for over 5 years and it is the most miserable and grim condition ever. There is no way to break free from the horrible condition, to sustain symptoms i have to have a very careful diet. I have to get up at 8.00am, cook eggs with cheese, anything else and i am having hypoglycemia symptoms after 1 hour. I have to carry flax seed with me incase of low blood sugar, for my lunch i have to have an egg salad and for tea, it has to be something high in protein, with few carbs. This is day in and day out, this is just terrible this condition. I just want some freedom and be able to have a mars bar and coca cola like everyone else, life is so unfair. I cannot go to the cinema with friends and have any popcorn. I have no life, i am just living to eat and making sure i have enough protein, healthy fats and fiber in my diet. I mean what is the point of living if i have to continue this grim existence. I cannot even go abroad, as the meals on a flight would cause me to have hypoglycemia and the plane might have to make an emergency landing if i cannot control my symptoms, what a terrible life this is. I have so much sympathy to all you wonderful people who put up with this terrible condition, much love to you all, as it is the worst thing ever. If having a new pancreas would stop this condition, i would have it, if anyone was kind enough to donate me a fully working pancreas. However it is not as simple as that, as having a new pancreas contains so many risks and it still may not cure the condition. I am here to ask is there any vitamins, minerals, herbs or prescriptions that can give me at least some life. I mean is there anything that can help, i just want a night at the cinema with some popcorn, i used to love that. Why should i have to cut my time with friends due to this terrible condition. I mean what is life, all i could have to eat in the cinema is a boiled egg, what a life this is. Eating just to survive if anyone could help i would be grateful, i mean does anyone know how i can get funding for further tests or clinical trials on this condition, as i cannot go on like this? Not only does my diet cost me a fortune, it is the worst existence ever, i find myself on a sunny weekend, shutting the curtains and watching movies on my own with a boiled egg and lots of protein around me, is this all that there is to life with this condition?
