[QUOTE="janeecee, post: 284405, member: 45332"] There is little doubt over my diagnosis of ME/CFS. I have attended two specialist units over the years and I have all the classic symptoms of neurological ME (as distinct from Fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue resulting from other conditions). I have been thoroughly checked out by specialists so the likelihood of misdiagnosis is not really an issue. I do understand that vitamin D deficiency is a consideration for many people who are housebound with ME and other conditions. Supplementing my diet and sitting outdoors has not led to any improvement in my ME symptoms so I don't consider it a contributing factor. My main concern is my recent blood sugar test and the future implications of how I can deal with a diagnosis of either prediabetes or adult onset diabetes, given that I am at the severe/housebound end of the ME scale and the fact that I am nowhere near being overweight. I have ordered a glucose testing kit and I will do my own tests to check for myself, although I should learn the results of my fasting glucose test next week. [/QUOTE]
