[QUOTE="steveelles, post: 1642637, member: 36585"] OK, so, update: I finally got so see a consultant who looked a a full medical history for me and confirmed that I've been showing symptoms consistent with a glucose metabolisng disorder like Type 2 diabetes since early childhood. He also said I should think myself lucky the doctors didn't declare me diabetic as they would have diagnosed me as a type 1, which I am not. Interesting to note that the general opinion is that there were no historical cases of childhood type 2 in the UK - I beg to differ from personal experience. Things are looking much more positive now. Lost lots of weight. Feel much better. GP thinks I have IBS with Type 2 which will require a bespoke diet plan. Just waiting on some test results. Thanks for everyone's feedback. [/QUOTE]
