first of all I’m not diabetic.
Been to see Gp as having lots of hypos around 5pm with no cause. Tried carbs before they happen, I walk home from work and the blood sugar drops. (From 5 to under 2.5 in less than 20 mins) fasting bloods 4.1-6.1 so I did wonder if there is a bit of resistance on the days where I’m over 6?
GP unsure of reasoning - suggested to try a low carb, high Protein and fat diet. (I’m currently trying low gi and have tried with and without snacks...) I wasn’t sure if this might make the hypos worse given they seen activity related? If it doesn’t work she wants to refer me to endocrine..
I’m going to give it a go but anyone with experience?
