[QUOTE="jacqfromdwed, post: 1569952, member: 311510"] Hi there, this is actually a lot more common than you might think and you are doing the right thing now by trying to nip it in the bud. It appears, that the main sense of anxiety here is the blood sugar aspect which has now directly affected your weight and has pushed it to the place that people are concerned. What you need to decide is does your weight play any part in this. Is there any part of you that is psyhologically gratified by having a low weight. If the answer to this is no, then there are a load of things you can do to increase weight such as adding creams and fats to your diet which will be completely negligible to your blood sugar and a dietician should be able to help with this . The good news is that phobias and specific anxieties respond really really well to the behaviouraol therapies. It maybe that while you are waiting for your appointment you could try some online resources or therapy? Some of the online stuff is quite good. Also if you have a low Hba1c you should be a priority under NICE guidelines as you are at higher risk. [/QUOTE]
