[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1604936, member: 85785"] Yeah, it is a bit weird thing, isn't it. The sugary drink and biscuits is for those that hypo like T1s. They are advised rightly to be about to be above normal levels. We would only bounce too high then low again. I was told many years ago to have some full fat yoghurt with some fruit, a couple of strawberries say, about an hour before bed. This will not only satiate you longer overnight but not raise your blood glucose levels up enough to cause a hyper. If you have Hypoglycaemia, no hyper means no hypos. But if you still hypo, have a plain biscuit, something like rich tea and a glass of water on your bedside cabinet in case you still do hypo during the night. What you have to understand about doctors, is they are not trained to diagnose rarer metabolic conditions like Hypoglycaemia and are following ancient medical advice in the medical books, in other words, they haven't got a clue how to treat Hypoglycaemia. The number of times I've been told to eat carbs because I need glucose for my health. Well, no I don't! I was told that going into ketosis would harm my health, well, the reverse happened! I found out that my metabolism is better off without the food that was really killing me. In the end, you have to find what foods are doing this to you. And of course, a cure, would be great. But I'm not holding my breath! But if the doctors are advising how food that is the reason you're ill. I don't get it! An endocrinologist who understands metabolic conditions is the best thing that can happen to you. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
