[QUOTE="zand, post: 2478468, member: 85197"] Hi, I'm so sorry you are in this very tough situation and sorry I don't have time to write all I would like to say on the subject right now. I too don't always trust the professionals. Some have been great and have saved my life, others not so great and I feel they should have picked up on things which they just ignored. Having said that, one of the things that is great about doctors is they give us access to blood tests. These don't lie, especially if they have been redone a few times. With an HbA1c of 33 and readings of around 6 after eating, your wife is not diabetic. I guess they must have done other tests? Like thyroid for instance? Eating disorders (whether eating too much or too little) are complex. I feel your wife needs to see a doctor who specialises in this area as there is something wrong, but it's not diabetes. [/QUOTE]
