Hi everyone, I have an appt with an Endocrinologist on 1 April. I was diagnosed in 2010 with Post Prandial Reactive Hypoglycaemia with lab reading of 2.1. In 2012 I was diagnosed with Rapid Gastric Emptying.
I am having trouble with energy/muscle shakes followed by my thigh muscles feeling as though they are seizing up and I can't seem to eat sufficient fat/meat type food to stop this happening.
I tried 1/3 small crust of Burgen bread with peanut butter on and I was sound asleep in 40 minutes. BG went from 4.6 to 6.4.
I have seen 3 Endocrinologists so far but they all seem to focus on Rapid Gastric Emptying. I have been on morphine 3 times a day (slows food down). Then Acarbose and finally Octreotide injections. None of these helped my RH.
What tests should I ask for and any questions that might help me?
Thanks.
