Hi there, this may be a strange queston but I am trying to get to the bottom of things after over a year, the Specialists still dont have the answers.I am supposedly Type 2 (? Mody) I was told by the Consultant at the DB clinic a few weeks ago, that I am the strangest case she or her colleauges have ever seen and my notes are always in the office as she keeps looking back through them.I have a great HB1AC, 5.7 I think, probably down to huge ammounts of exercise and not eating much, my problem is that I have both highs (as high as 18 ish) and lows (as low as 2.2) on no medication, this has been a nightmare, I can literally feel my sugars rising and dropping and I feel so ill, and have repeated bouts of oral thrush and sky high BP (on Ramipril).I have been put on Glicazide twice and then taken off it because my HB1AC is normal.Stange thing is,the lows have only ever stopped happening when am on the Glicazide, this is back to front and makes no sense, everyone is baffled.My Cortisol levels are too high, so I see an Endocrinologist next week as they think I may have Cushings Disease but I am not overweight (although do battle to keep it off).I just thought that if I have Reactive Hypoglycemia on top of diabetes it might make sense.Say an hour after a meal , my sugar will be say 16mmol, then around 11, 2 hours later, then 3 or four hours later will be 3mmol. Stress also plays a huge part in making my sugar drop like a ton of bricks.I am so tired of things and hope the Endo can shed some light on things.I would be so grateful to find anyone who has ever experienced the same thing or anything similar, just want to be back to my normal energetic self x
