[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1991844, member: 94045"] There isn't a test for PIR as far as I am aware. It is something that can happen when your body detects too little glucose to feed the brain, so only happens when carbs are very low (and presumably zero) but if your liver is secreting a lot of glucose because of DP, fasting or exercise or whatever, PIR may not happen as there is sufficient glucose floating about. You may never know if it is happening, but if your pre-meal levels (your baseline levels) are higher than normal with no other explanation, then it may be happening. [/QUOTE]
