Thanks a lot Brunneria, yes I found the low carb really difficult but as you rightly say I haven't been eating great and I definitely wasn't getting enough health fats onboard. Thanks a lot for the advice, I really appreciate it. :)

Thanks a lot for your advice, I will definitely look at adding this into my diet (Minus the avocado!!) Really appreciate your help, thank you.

That's what's very confusing, especially when I'm feeling symptoms but my blood sugar level is showing as normal. How are you managing to cope? Your levels seem lower than mine My normal food intake looks something like this: 08:00 - Breakfast biscuits and banana 11:00 - Apple 12:00 - Dinner...

Hi Karen, I've been very up and down, but fingers crossed over the last few weeks I've felt slightly better, thanks for asking :) . To be honest I haven't been very good at avoiding carbs, this is something I need to work on. I've tested my blood sugar levels, after meals and when I'm feeling...

Hi Lamont, I have been using the glucometer, normal readings in the morning are around 4.5-4.7 before any food. I've been testing when I've had symptoms, with readings around 4.2 - 5.2, average around 4.7. The low carb diet sadly hasn't really made too much difference, I just feel a lot more...

Sorry to hear you are struggling, I can't imagine how difficult it must be coping with RH and the underlying issues, I hope that you manage to get some good news soon. I have been using the AccuCheck, especially when I have been having symptoms, the lowest result was 4.2, and the highest 5.2...

Thanks a lot for your reply :) I will definitely ask for that test and hopefully it will shed some more light on what's happening! Thanks for the info on the accuhcek mobile i'm going to get one this week. How are you coping with your RH? :)

Thanks again for the information Lamont! The exercise has probably been one of the hardest things to deal with, as exercise really used to help me deal with stress etc. Thanks for the recommendations and advice, I have started walking and trying to play football once a week. I'm definitely...

It sounds like we are all having the same problems in the beginning with GP/Doctor not recognising the illness, I wish they would understand the effect this condition has had on people. I'm glad you are coping well, it's really nice to hear that there is light at the end of the tunnel, I have...

Hi Lamont, thanks a lot for your reply! He didn't suggest any further tests, he simply noted on the letter that he thought it was hyperventilation causing the issue and sent me on my way... not too helpful, maybe I should get another referral. I haven't heard anything on hba1c levels, I'll be...

Thanks for your reply! Yes I must admit I have read it all several times, it does make me feel slightly better reading similar stories as I felt as if I've been going insane! :banghead: I will add that I have so much sympathy for the people experiencing this, it's a horrible illness! Thanks...

Hi there, I've been suffering with what I believe to be RH for just over a year and a few months and just wondered if anyone had any similar experiences and advise? I'm 29 year old male, previously I have been very fit and active with no health concerns, I used the gym regularly, and used to...
