    Reactive Hypoglycaemia and exercise

    Hi Ashintheuk, What diabetic drugs were you on? Must be terrible to have RH and have to use insulin. Do you regulate your diet. I am on 1000mg metformin and have RH but also have a very restrictive diet. Low carb. But it's still not 100% and have problems with exercise but also in general if I...

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia and exercise

    Hi Suzy, I like that analogy LOL made me laugh, that our pancreas are drama queens!! I always think it behaves like people who have asthma, but with carbs. I have tried the carb last and so far so good and I think your right about mornings my pancreas is definitely more trigger happy in the...

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia and exercise

    Hi Suzy, Sorry to hear that you have just been diagnosed with RH. It's a tough one, but it sounds like you are doing really well and have a really good nutritionist. Mine is a bit vague on details and just give me general rules to follow. It also sounds like you are doing really well with your...

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia and exercise

    Thanks for your kind words and support. I will do it slowly because I'm worried I'll crash or get carb flu which they say just drinking more water and adding more salt to your diet will help this, hopefully! Thanks Lisa

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia and exercise

I don't know what my trigger level is, so I will have to do some tests to see. Today I am calculating how many carbs I actually eat in a day with the Carbs & Cals app...

    Keto Diet

    Hi, Thanks for all your suggestions and I will definitely give it a go. I guess due to all the anxiety I feel about my RH, change it is always a hard thing to do. I have been watching a lot of YouTube stuff about Keto diets but they always talk about diabetes and the effects, never about RH...

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia and exercise

    Hi Lamont, Thanks for your reply and all the information you have suggested. Your right RH and dealing with all the issues is very stressful and I seem to have a lot of ups and downs both with the RH and my anxiety. I had a really bad time of it about a year ago with both but after a lot of...

    Keto Diet

    Hi, I was just wondering how to start going on a keto diet as I am really worried about it but at the same time I need to change my diet. I would say I eat about 150g of carbs a day and only rye sourdough and oats as that is all I can tolerate in terms of carbs. I eat the same things every day...

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia and exercise

    Hi, I have been having some issues with exercise as well. I have had RH for about 8 years now and it seems to have gotten worse over the years no matter how strict my diet gets. I would like to be able to go walking with my dogs more, but most days I am worried and high anxiety which gets the...
