    Reactive Hypoglycemia Anxiety

    Thank you for your kind reply [emoji4] Yes I wear a lanyard when I’m out on my own and at work for emergency contacts. I have had the doctors and the diabetic nurse thinks it’s my sugar levels dropping so quickly causing the anxiety. I’m even getting hypo warnings in the safe numbers, so we...

    Reactive Hypoglycemia Anxiety

    Hi, I shouldn’t be asking this question as I know the answer really. Having RH with diabetes for nine years has had its ups & downs. I have always been very positive dealing with it but for some reason I am struggling? It’s a constant battle for work, friends & family to understand it. I drop...

I had to keep repeating that I have hypo symptoms really bad in the 4’s, falling over and not being able to concentrate or see properly. I have learnt so much in the past 7 years since being diagnosed with this awkward illness. I find...

    Type 1 Scary hypo dream

    Hi, I have these dreams too. I am type 2 with reactive hypoglycaemia and I’m insulin resistant. I have no medication, just prevent a hypo every two hours. I weigh my food and count my carbs by eating eight meals a day. I wake up shouting out loud. ‍♀️

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia

    Hi, I was eventually sent for a 5 hour glucose test at the hospital. At first the diabetic nurse couldn’t understand why I was dropping so low and falling over a lot, being only just in type 2? I was going from hyper to hypo all day. I find that oats/porridge lasts me really well in the...

    Reactive Hypoglycaemia

    Thank you [emoji4] I work for a very large bank, so it wasn’t easy!!! The hardest thing is if I slip up in anyway, generally eating out it comes and bites me on the bum. It’s funny how people just think it’s cutting out sugar in you tea or cakes etc.... I have to look at everything I eat. I...

It took me a year of nearly loosing my job after 32 years, to finally get them to listen to what was happening to me, after a huge fight, taking them to appeal and staying very...
