Does reactive Hypo gets worse over time, and does it lead to diabetes?
It can do if not dietary controlled and because of many factors of symptoms and hormonal imbalances and response, it can also lead to diabetes.
Hi,
@Razper,
This question reminds me of a period I had before diagnosis, I was having continuous episodes of Hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia, hyperinsulinaemia, insulin resistance and I according to my endocrinologist, really ill, but I didn't have a clue.
The symptoms were endless from morning till night.
I had no idea, nor did my doctors.
So despite being on so called diets that should have been helping me, the carbs were making me ill.
Because having RH, means that we get an overshoot of insulin, the levels of insulin in your blood will rise. This will lead to hypos. We have to avoid these overshoot by not eating food that triggers the insulin response.
If we do not eat accordingly to stop the triggers, the amount of insulin increases, insulin resistance increases, the fluctuations get higher and lower, your health suffers. If not treated it will end with RH and T2 diabetes, and probably hyperinsulinaemia.
Because of my experience, I would not recommend this.
Being healthy and avoiding those foods, is a better decision I made.
