[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1938625, member: 41816"] Hi, Symptoms like these tend to be linked with high or irregular blood glucose levels and often occur in women with pcos. I remember once reading an article linking high insulin levels rather than high glucose. Sorry, but I don’t have a link to the article. I read it years ago. By that I mean that your bg may be swinging about more than is shown by your current testingregime. And you can still get a low fasting reading yet have bg rising and falling at other times. Or alternatively, your bg levels may be staying controlled, but you may be needing large/increased amounts of insulin to do this, because of growing insulin resistance. I was (known to be) preD for nearly 20 years, I think (although hard to remember now), and I had 2 or 3 periods of boils that coincided with less low carbing and diet changes. I also found they recurred with stress, fatigue and anything that knocked my immune system. Then they went away again with fewer carbs, better eating, and less stress/disruption. Interestingly, I have had higher bg at other times, with no boils, so I lean speculatively towards the hyperinsulinaemia theory. [/QUOTE]
