[QUOTE="mekalu2k4, post: 949814, member: 171561"] You must be glad that you are here, the info here is very valuable. Firstly I am not a medical doc, but have had all the symptoms that you listed. Am also single, divorced, did not have access to my daughter for years. But she is big now, 16years; visiting me whenever possible, but without knowledge of my ex. So all these stress me out even now. For me seeing of my baby at the railway station is the most difficult part; it looks as though it will be the last. My list is endless; am sure everyone has his/her list probably longer than I do. You have acidity problems. Are you on medication for this? like beta blockers or prozols? This clearly indicates that you are stressed and may be suffering from anxiety disorder. Again, acidity and anxiety disorder have strong relationship. Persons suffering from these problems are deprived from sleep in terms of number of hours and quality [deep sleep]. I do not have any idea on thyroid, so cannot comment on that aspect. Apparently you are a clean person in terms of habits. Your BP is very good for your age, actually in the athletic range; may be due to your regular exercises. Keep them doing. As per your post, indication is that you have impaired glucose regulation. Well, at 50years with your stress levels, menopause etc it is likely. But nothing to worry much as it can be managed very well. May be it is good now that you know action is needed. A few guys I know have had impaired glucose regulation; impaired glucose tolerance; even pre-diabetes for more than 10 years and yet not fully T2D. They managed with simple diet and exercises. But you definitely need to avoid stress - that is the big spoiler. I am with you on the aspect of being lonely, it is very miserable life to be alone. My biggest fear is how to spend the weekend. But we need to try. From my end; best advise is - 1. Exercises: keep trying different forms of exercises - like resistance exercises, yoga, running, swimming, biking etc. Keep exploring new forms of these workouts, by doing that you work on different muscle groups. To an extent, you can keep the anxiety factor under check by doing so. 2. Low carb diet. Read on this forum about low carbing. 3. Sleep well. at least 6hours. This is the tough part, but very important. I won my battle with sleep issues, but had to try several ways. In short, Internet is great - there are so many methods reported - I am lucky that somethings worked for me. These days, I sleep for 6 hours, and might get up in between [due to acidity or any other reason], down a hot chocolate - spend sometime on my computer about 1hr or so; go to sleep again. So you need to find what works for you. Keep us posted on your progress. [/QUOTE]
