[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2659737, member: 85785"] I can't remember or reading wether you have had an oral glucose tolerance test. I ask because it is part of that test especially the extended five hour test to be fitted with a cannula, and along with special blood tests, they usually do a c-peptide and GAD test because of the hypos and symptoms. I would have thought that this as well as an insulin count, would have been done before going onto the fasting test. I remind you that these tests are done to eliminate other conditions, rather than diagnosis for RH. You are having it tough, and to my mind, the excessive symptoms you describe are similarities with a horrible reaction to something that has knocked your body, maybe an allergic reaction or an acute intolerance to something, that could be environmental. The hypo readings could be a symptom of the body's response to it! I will probably be totally wrong but I think it is worth considering. However if it was me and you can't eat, sleep and vomiting as well as the diarrhoea I would think about going the the A&E. You cannot go on like this. Do look after yourself. Please consider it. My best wishes [USER=581509]@Ca12[/USER] [/QUOTE]
