[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2381720, member: 41816"] Good to hear your endo is looking a bit deeper. :) I am afraid that blood testing when hypo is a necessary part of being hypo. I have seen members on here say that, with time, it becomes automatic. His point about going into hospital for the extended glucose tolerance test is a very valid one, at the moment, but even without it you can do a lot of investigation by yourself, armed only with your Dexcom, a food diary, and your glucometer as backup confirmation. Of course, it is up to you whether you start carbs again. I completely understand your reluctance, but it may be the only way you can actually prove, with data, what is going on, whether that is hypos, or eliminating them as a possibility for your symptoms. Doctors need data nowadays, or they don't consider they have enough evidence for a diagnosis. Let us know how you get on? [/QUOTE]
