Hi
@dan1jess2 ,
Do you have normal fasting blood glucose levels?
Or because of your Hba1c, it is slightly above normal, though you get normal readings but not in morning due to dawn phenomenon?
It is more common to have RH with T2, rather than just RH!
It is rather more evident in gestational diabetes, because of the fluctuating blood glucose levels. But to be given a diagnosis takes a lot of time and by the time of the birth, some of the RH symptoms recede as does gestational diabetes.
You do remind me of me, when before diagnosis, all my doctors, dsns and even an endocrinologist would say, that, it's just my diabetes!
Oh joy something else to think about! I'll have a good chat with my nurse Wednesday see what she says, thanks for your help x
It will probably be futile!
Dsns are not trained, as are most GPs!
But you need to get an endocrinologist, by getting your surgery to get you a referral to one that specialises in conditions similar to RH!
Hopefully if you have a food diary you can present it as evidence for the very quick spikes which I believe is gastric dumping and the quick drop to normal levels and below. The symptoms are symptomatic of Hypoglycaemia.
But I could be wrong!
As others have suggested a low carb lifestyle is preferred, to offset the symptoms.
Until your get your diagnosis (hopefully) try and stabilize your blood glucose levels.
You do have to fight to get diagnosed, don't give up, even if it's not Hypoglycaemia, the support will still be here for you!
Best wishes.
