[QUOTE="Kaz261, post: 1459223, member: 220230"] Hi Emski68, I don't really have symptoms anymore as my RH is pretty well controlled by diet. When I had my prolonged OGTT which confirmed the RH diagnosis, I was in the pre-diabetic range after 2 hours (9 ish from memory) and hypo'd after 3 hours at 2.7. I slowly recovered up to 5's in the following 2 hours and stayed there. I'm certain they never tested my insulin levels in line with my bs though and I never had a scan to check my pancreas. At the time, if I ate too many carbs I would get thirsty and very tired and had ketones in my urine ( but no glucose with the ketones). As long as I stick to the right foods, the only symptom I occasionally get (which I didn't get until recently) is a burning pain in my stomach area. Usually at night in bed. I don't get it often but when I do, it's very uncomfortable. I thought it might be heart burn, but it doesn't feel like that and is lower down. My Endo was one of the leading ones in the region, so I'm sure he knew what he was doing. I just would have been happier if he'd and ruled out insulinoma. How do your symptoms/numbers compare with mine? What tests are you having (if you don't mind me asking)? Thanks for your reply. Kaz [/QUOTE]
