[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2286886, member: 41816"] Hi and welcome back :) My understanding is that a diagnosis of RH is a diagnosis of elimination. In other words, ‘insulin levels are reflective of RH’ means ‘we have looked for everything else we can think of, and this fits the pattern for RH so we will call it RH until another explanation presents itself. Don’t feel hard done by. There are quite a few other conditions which are diagnosed using the same process. as for an explanation as to why your bg goes so low... ask them. And please come back and tell us what they say. :) Again, my understanding would be Short answer: You overproduced insulin which drives bg low Longer answer: You ate sufficient carbs that your body couldn’t cope, you overproduced insulin which drove your bg low Longer answer: You ate sufficient carbs to drive your bg up too high, too fast, which triggered your body to overproduce insulin which drove your bg low Longer answer: You ate too many carbs which drove your bg up too high, too fast, which triggered your body to overproduce insulin which drove your bg low and your body failed to switch the insulin off in time, and failed to compensate for the dropping bg in time. Good luck with your next appointment. what treatment are they proposing? [/QUOTE]
