[QUOTE="DaisyChloe, post: 2286957, member: 506290"] Hi both, Thanks for your replies. I will definitely ask them what they think. They wanted to see what my insulin levels were doing before doing a 72 hour fast, so I'm not sure whether they will do one or not. [USER=85785]@Lamont D[/USER] that's interesting that yours lasted longer and you had higher BGLs after the glucose. How much glucose were you given for your OGTT? I had 113ml of that horrible thick liquid! I've never had a problem with my sugars being too high, only going too low. My control isn't very good at the moment... Obviously I had to have a load of sugar for this test and I will definitely have a hypo if I eat sugary things, but often it takes me by surprise and I'll have a hypo after eating a normal healthy meal. I have an appointment with a dietitian on 23rd and I imagine they're going to advise a low GI diet. When I first saw the endocrinologist she thought it was related to autonomic dysfunction (I have a diagnosis of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) but my neurologist disagrees, so I have no idea. Anyway I appreciate you both replying and I will definitely let you know what they say [/QUOTE]
