[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1629336, member: 85785"] Two things! I am not standard RH and my family other than one brother has had T2 diabetes. Therefore not auto immune! Or genetic! I have been told by my endocrinologist and others on this website, that if I controlled my RH, I would NOT become diabetic. It is so logical, that my health has improved so much, that if I continue to avoid the food that I cannot tolerate, there is no reason whatsoever, that my health will continue to be as good as it is now! Reactive Hypoglycaemia is not or never will be auto immune. Reactive hypoglycaemia is a condition of the gut brain trigger to counter the imbalance of glucose in either first insulin response or the secondary insulin response. Reactive Hypoglycaemia does cause T2 because of uncontrolled hyperinsulinaemia. There are different types of hypoglycaemia, I have 'Late Reactive Hypoglycaemia'! If you have read the threads in our forum, you will find that none of the others diagnosed posters are exactly the same. It is logical because of environmental, ethnic and individual food choices, and of course the gut bacteria, that we are so different and unique that to claim that there is a 'standard' is beyond definition. I am unique and weird, because it is so rare, especially in men! Most women have the symptoms especially in pregnancy but it is a common condition. But they call it Gestational diabetes not RH, simply because that is the condition and not any type of hypoglycaemia, though they do get hypos, just as all types of diabetes if the conditions are right! As I've said before, having hypos does not mean hypoglycaemia. Having hyperinsulinaemia does not mean you have diabetes or RH! Each diagnosis found forms part of the whole. That is why getting invaluable hospital tests is vital in finding a true diagnosis, not one dreamed up on the musing of a doctor forty years ago. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
