I'm now thinking on the lines  i might be wrongly diagnosed as not having high blood sugar maybe have something known as hyperinsulemia, where the body producing too much insulin as as i had 2 episodes of hypo's already after being told that i am diabetic did have these episodes before but didnt what they where know i know.  Just to put my mind at rest i performed in home glucose test  75g of glucose bought from boots powdered form disssolved in 250ml of water. Fasted for 8 hours reading 5.1 drank solution and took reading at 45 mins 7.9 then at hour and half 6.1 and then at 2 hours 6.4. I know the test is not done acurately but it does give an indiction that my body does somehow over produce insulin because with that amount of glucose in my body my blood sugar should have rose considerably high in my opinion.so the test done so it give an indiction of hyperinsulemia or is hyperinsulemia totally different or am i just Insulin Resistant.any opinion welcomeThankEggie</blockquote>
