[QUOTE="LisaHolly, post: 2262935, member: 524069"] Hi Again, Gosh your condition sounds a lot worse than mine, and I feel hampered :| but your are right if I can get the diet right I should start feeling much better and safer. I always thought people with RH have a really strong insulin response after carbs and that's whats causing the problems, why is yours weak? And why would you have a hypo after? Are you not then closer to being Diabetic? Sorry, just really interested, but you don't have to go into it if you don't want to. It all seems very variable and I hate that Doctors don't seem to know much about this. I just had a really bad experience with my local DR who was meant to monitor my new meds but said she really knows nothing about this condition and was not willing to do as my specialist asked. I think I have had symptoms for a long very long time and the first Doctor I saw put me on anti anxiety meds which made it worse. It took another year to find a Doctor who knew what was wrong. Wish it had a proper name and wasn't so rare. Thanks for the advice about meds with sugar. I mostly just take paracetamol. Going to start a food diary as you suggested and start testing to see what works and what doesn't. Got to admit I'm a bit anxious about going Keto because of the repercussions if it goes wrong as I am not yet stable, well I have never been stable just a bit better on the low carb diet. Plus I have just come out of a disastrous couple of weeks trying a new medication. So I thought I'd go slow and take it one step at a time :) or at least one meal at a time LOL Oh yes on your first reply you mentioned when you do a recovery you eat a small carbohydrate meal. Could you be specific as the to the steps you take and what you eat and how long it takes to recover and how low your blood sugar level is when you do a recovery. Thanks for all your help with this if's great to know there are other people out there with he same issues. Lisa :) [/QUOTE]
