[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2437982, member: 85785"] Hi [USER=548375]@Micoch[/USER] and welcome to the forum. It all depends on the effect of how low carb you go. As you are already in normal blood sugar levels fasting and Hba1c from fasting when you get up. It's about the intolerance to those carbs you are still eating and how your insulin response copes with the glucose derived from that meal. Because one of the diagnostic tests is a fasting test, I spent nearly four days without food. What happened to me, was I suddenly realized, first I didn't have to eat four times a day. I could eat what was healthy for me and my symptoms and the hypos disappeared. I became fat adapted and my brain fog lifted, my energy levels increased and I really felt a lot better. So having learnt what happens to me, because of the insulin overshoot, the lower the carbs intake the less likelihood of going hypo. What tests have you had? What has been the dietary advice? Because I avoid carbs totally. I often describe RH as being carb intolerant. When you get your monitor, I would recommend keeping a food diary. To log your results. Keep asking, keep safe [/QUOTE]
