I dislike Lyxumia. Is there an alternative?

I thought that my new regime Lyxumia would have sorted itself out by now but its become even more difficult and I’m not sure what to do to get into a reasonable reaction from it.

Yesterday after a normal light lunch od soup at midday I took my injection at the normal time of 17.30 and waited for 18.00 for my main meal but the top of my head started to feel very warm, I started to feel nauseous and under no circumstances could I face food of any description. I telephoned a medical friend for advice who said take a blood level measurement which I did and it was at 9.6 and my medical friend said you must eat something. The only thing I could face was two slices of bread and jam and ten minutes later I took another blood reading and it was 3.4 upon which I settled down and felt a little better. I had my main meal a little later. All in all I’m becoming very fed up with this treatment and do wish there was something else I could take. I attempted to contact the suppler but they are impossible to get to.

I have no idea but it seemed a good idea at the time and it worked. Having said that this drug often makes me feel so wretched that I fel like dumping it and taking the result. How on earth can such a drug be released?

I fear that my comments on this post have developed the mark of a disgruntled hypochondriac obsessed with the minute details of his medical conditions and I apologise if that is how I appear. My interest in this matter is based on the simple wish to understand the physiology of what is happening to me.

Yesterday I ate normally, a wicked fry up for lunch, a couple of Ham sandwiches for tea and a Yoghurt with Cherry and Cranberry during the evening. I was awoken at about 2am with the most awful stomach wind which I have never had before and my wife gave me some Gripe Water which eventually sorted me out.

Sunday morning is always a day of excitement for me as I weigh myself and take a blood sugar reading? I’m satisfied with the weight but the blood sugar reading was very disappointing at 10.6. I checked the Gripe water details which say its alcohol and sugar free and is made up of Dill seed oil, Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate.

I will check the blood sugar reading tomorrow morning and hope its better and if not I will see my doctor.

The above was a few days ago but I'm in trouble again. I took my injection this evening, waited the appropriate time and had my main meal of the day at about 18.30 then at about 22.00 I started to feel a troubled tummy which is a sign I'm going into a hypo so I did a blood test and it read 4.1 way below normal for me so I did what I have done before and ate a packet of crisps and a slice of toast and immediately started to feel better. I took another blood test half an hour or so later and my blood sugar had started to rise.
I never had these problems before I went onto Lyxumia so I will make an appointment with my doctor to see if there is an alternative.
