I am getting some of those and will see what happens. Thank you for advice.

No, it is my fault for writing incoherently. :) Yes, I am currently reading about it and it seems that this unintentional experiment clearly shown that low-carb is an absolute bane to my body. Now, whenever I eat a little bit of carbs, my blood glucose spikes up and makes me feel ******. I want...

I was not diagnosed with diabetes. The endocrinologist said none of the parameters show I am diabetic. I fell into low-carb accidently, then got some sweet taste in my mouth, ketones, loss of weight and got scared so took out all carbs for at least 2 weeks, and did not each much as well. Quite...

Hello guys, after consultation with endo and a couple of nights in the hospital, he concluded that over around 3 weeks period, where I was mostly eating very low carb and/or very little calories, I have induced severe insulin resistance in my body. Here is what was done: c-peptide was low, but...

My GP has an inkling of my issues. I displayed them to him but he seems to just want me to be tougher. I did not complain about me writing on forums and panicking though. I can try that.

Today around 50g of carbs from various lower carbs sources. Thanks for vouching for me. In the past couple of days, things are getting worse in my opinion. I ate a lot of proteins and fats with some carbs yesterday. Today, did similar. But I can feel empty spaces in between my shinbones, the...

Took advice from people. Ate a lot more food. Huge amount of protein (150g) with as much fat and some carbs. Feel a bit better but I still seem to be losing mass from my body. My shins are sticking out even more ... This is nonsense.

Yes, I do have some factitious disorder attributes. Always had. You mean symptoms at 10 mmol/l? I feel like **** at 6 mmol/l. The endo did not even mention type 2. He seems convinced it is type 1, sudden onset and it is caught early. There are people who are diagnosed type 2 mistakenly, get...

I told the endo about this and he said it makes negligible difference. The fasting blood glucose is not that important because body had 10-12 hours to put it back. The rate of putting it back depends on insulin amounts. When body is flooded with glucose, if not enough insulin is produced even in...

The point he made is that in early stages, the pancreas can stabilise blood sugar over time if no new insulin-required molecules go into bloodstream. As they die, the fasting blood sugar will rise, hba1c will rise and then people will start experiencing thirst, peeing all the time because...

I was at endo today. He said that in early stages, there is enough insulin to keep BG normalish. In addition, if stuff goes wrong recently, then Hba1c is useless because the average nulls out the recent spikes. The endo is the one who took all T1 tests. I have all the symptoms. He was...

It seems that my endo is convinced that I have T1 and it was sudden onset. Normal fasting and HbA1c but failed OGTT. He already ordered Type 1 tests. I basically was sent on semi-urgent referral to an NHS endo by GP, which would have happened in January or February. However, I could not wait...

Why? Just went to endo and am safe now according to him.

Fructosamine, GAD, IAA, ICA. Hba1c, fasting glucose, kidney function and so on ... Earlier death, death by hyperglecemia, complications and no cure "in just 5 years"

Urgent referral to endocrinologist happened: I was questioned for an hour. I lost even more weight since yesterday. Endocrinologist tested my blood for acidosis, which was okay. Fasting BG was 4.8 and I was given type 1 diabetes tests. I pretty resigned to my fate now ...

I had thyroid tests recently. They seem to be fine. Below 11 is pre-diabetes and it could just mean still diabetic but pancreas is "good enough" for now.

She lives in my home country. I went to her to check myself through for illnesses such as bad digestion. She checked everything: heart, nervous system, brain, pancreas, liver, gallbladder. Found why I cannot digest fats well, the only doctor who took me seriously and spent 3 hours on me. I trust...

My blood sugar rose to 5.7 just from eating one tomato and some peanut butter. And it is always this feeling: getting anxious, moving around, and dizzy headache. Tired as hell. This is not good and I am not optimistic.

I did not ignore that. I was told by another doctor that it does not really matter. If pancreas is working and functional, then you could have fasted for a week, then ate half a cake and blood glucose after 2 hrs would not be more than 8.5. This is a doctor talking not some Internet story.

I always ate healthily and enough before this ensued. Breakfast: bacon, eggs, avocadoes with some amazing yoghurt. Lunch: Rice, vegetables, beaf, home made tortillas, spanish paella, dinner: some kind of fish, such as salmon with rye bread and vegetables. I never had eating disorder. Only when...
