[QUOTE="Gary1205, post: 947202, member: 188342"] Thanks Andrew Bluetit and Robbity for your replies. I guess another reason I felt it was a bug at the time was had previously experienced the sudden feeling of being hot and sweaty and then being sick when had a sickness and diarrhoea bug in the past. Also have in the shortime been diabetic especially when I went cold turkey on sugary things in the early days actually felt cold and shaky when my BG dropped, so assumed this would be my sign. Guess I have learnt a valuable lesson and will test when anything odd happens in future as clearly there is no way of knowing for sure otherwise. Still feeling a bit upset at the GP I guess as was hoping to come off all meds in the next two weeks and now there is a possibility might be starting something else. Also it was the way I think he worded things as I was left feeling the control I have taken to bring my weight and BGs down could not have been down to my efforts alone in his opinion and in particular the weight loss had to be down to something else, especially as I feel I have been so disciplined on the diet & exercise front since diagnosis. To me it would be a remarkable coincidence if I developed a thyroid problem at exactly the same time as I changed my lifestyle. I think it is fair to say he has taken the wind out of my sails with his attitude. [/QUOTE]
