Thanks Guys, Yeh I won't be 'adding' more complex carbs as she suggested, I'm trying to keep my intake at under 20g. I've felt tired this week but I've been at work which is quite full on and stressful at the moment. I think I will get some of the chelated magnesium supplements thanks just...

Hey everyone, Thought I'd come on and give a bit of an update.... I'm feeling quite motivated and good, having this week off work has probably helped, but I'd like to think its due to my diet. I have been doing a more keto diet the past few weeks and am hopeful its a change for the better. As...

Thanks Nosher, no I haven't tried fasting, not sure it's something I'll be able to do, keeps cropping up on the diet doctor website and I keep meaning to look into it a bit more but haven't got round to it. So I've done well this week and had lots of snacks on hand, I've also not eaten any...

Thanks for the welcome back :) The GP did actually pick up on low vitamin D levels a few years ago, not long before I was diagnosed I think. It was very low and I was prescribed tablets, I do remember feeling better and seeing improved skin, but it didn't seem to last. I haven't taken the...

Hi Guys, I've posted on this forum before but never the reactive hypoglycemia part as it didn't exist when I was posting around a yr or so ago, so happy there is this section now! @Brunneria and @nosher8355 may not remember me but gave me some great support and advice when I first got my...

B- 2 scrambled eggs with bit of butter, 2 bacon rashers, tea with almond milk Mid morn snack - full fat greek yogurt with walnuts, satsuma L- left over pork belly slice with egg mayo How am I doing so far?

Thanks for all that info @Brunneria I probably do have some underlying thing as I've had this since I can remember, there must be a cause and yeh I can't fight with the Dr's anymore they don't have a clue, so I can only research and try things for myself. I was once told by a gp that I will...

Thanks for the welcome, I didn't realize there was a section for reactive hypoglycemia so will have a read through tomorrow. I eat alot of full fat greek yogurt, usually with some walnuts, flaxseed and sometimes berries, its my go to snack when I'm hungry as its quick and easy but probably...

Hi Guys, hoping for a bit of encouragement and guidance. I'm not diabetic, I have reactive hypoglycemia and pre-diabetes, basically I was only diagnosed with this 2yrs ago at 30 years old. I've suffered these hypo attacks since childhood and no Dr could tell me why as the standard tests for...

Thanks I will look through them links. Yes I was referred finally and had a 72hr fast to rule out insulinoma and then a 5hr GTT, they only ever sent me for 2hr ones before. I was diagnosed at age 31 after suffering this since I can remember, my mum used to always have food with us when we went...

Thanks for the welcome, I just can't believe I've suffered with these problems for years, no doctor could give me answers, only referred me on to an endocrinologist after my bs dropped to 2.1 one day. And the advice they have given since has been wrong for me. I'm having to find everything out...

Hi all, thought I would introduce myself,I don't have diabetes however have suffered blood sugar lows since a child, never got any answers until recently when I was diagnosed with reactive hypoclycemia and pre diabetes Was told to eat carbs with every meal, they had to make up about 30% of the...

Just to add Ive not been diagnosed with anything, even though Ive been having these low blood sugar symptoms for as long as I can remember, I thought I had reactive hypoglycemia, but now these higher readings are confusing me as Ive never had them before, Im worried that years of not sorting...
