Hi
I hope to get experimentalist to investigate my theories. Maybe they can treat type 2 diabetes by attacking the unknown hormones. Maybe they can actually use a GTT to help women with diabetes in pregnancy or maybe very few women with the "normal" way of processing sugar and no diabetes to start with get diabetes in pregnancy (what a relief).
The number of glucose tolerance tests, I have had, would show how unique RH ers are. Regardless of what we have, and I have seen numerous normal, abnormal diabetic graphs showing the progress of the test.
The same graph that I had, which was three prolonged glucose test showed exactly the same results. Which was a quick steep climb straight up to its peak (spike).
Then the steady decline and a clear second insulin response to send us into Hypoglycaemia. This was exactly the same as a woman with late RH! She was not pregnant. I have seen other graphs of other glucose tests. I said unique because my endocrinologist has only witnessed this in RH ers! (He knows nine!) And they are all the same with minor differentials.
Diet is the only treatment, but there is a drug called sitagliptin that helps the glucogenesis part of the digestive process. Which helps with the lowering of the hyper! Intermittent fasting helps! Fasting is good for us. Keeping yourself in ketosis is the healthy option. We have food allergies which can kill us!
I'd rather be fit and healthy than eat carbs!
I'd rather my blood sugar remains in control, because that's were I need to be in my conscious and unconscious part of my psyche.
Why, I have no idea, why, I have RH, I have looked for answers, there is none!
Only by experimenting and experience of others can my present state be qualified, I am and have been a guinea pig. What's worked for me, is also helping others.
Theories are just theories, experience and actually controlling the condition is the only way to approach this.
If you are as fit and healthy as I am. I'm glad for you. I see no sense in obsessing over a theory!
Regards.
