Wow, thanks. Super info and links. I will look further into them. And thanks @Lamont D.

Excellent helpful reply …thank you. Can I ask how I test my glucose at home please? Should I ask GP or is there an OTC purchase? Also picked up these research papers on chromium from IPS Facebook group. Very interesting. https://europepmc.org/article/MED/9322187

Thanks for your response. From your reply it would seem to confirm that my lack of symptoms is indeed related to hard physical work. At least I know the fix now….whether it’s sustainable going forward is another unknown. Given we know the probable fix, does this help work out what is actually...

Interesting! Hard exercise has never been mentioned to me before by medical profession and to be fair I wouldn’t have realised how hard and prolonged it needed to be. Can you tell me what CGM stands for? Thx

Hi All, just in case this helps anyone with what I think is IPS (diagnosed as such and many symptoms fit) after 6 years of trying everything I think I might have accidentally hit on the fix! All the tinkering with carbs, diet, restricting diet to foodstuffs I know haven’t caused issues (usually)...

Thanks again...your experiences and how you had to fix the problem yourself add more pieces to the puzzle and I was very interested to read your blog entry Jul 30 re H. Pylori. Have I read it right that you only had the diagnosis of H Pylori because of the endoscope exam. Had you not had blood...

Thank you for replying. Wow, how interesting! I will read your links Edit: (thought there were some at your footer but now can’t see them!) as I am just embarking on serious attempt to cut carbs right down. Made a list and shopped yesterday so will report back.

Many thanks for replying. It’s very helpful to have your comments as it’s surprisingly confusing unravelling conditions, symptoms etc as they are never totally definitive. I’m extremely relieved if I don’t have a physical condition of course but feel a psychological source can’t be right or why...

Just read through Reactive Hypoglycemia wiki. This looks like the nearest fit so far. Very interesting!

Thank you so much for your reply LittleGreyCat....really kind of you. I think I had the fasting blood test..this has been going on a while now...not sure about HbAlc. I can get this info from Docs tho. Not had pin prick tests or oral glucose. I never feel bloated ...well, only if really...

I’m told tests show I don’t have diabetes BUT no one can say what my symptoms signify. The nearest conditions can find relate to insulin in some way but it seems a complicated process I can hardly get to grips with. So, can anyone help. (I’ve had an exam by a consultant who has disagnosed ‘post...
