[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 810871, member: 85785"] Hi [USER=108544]@Nicola_F[/USER] Welcome (back!). Most doctors and even Specialists havent got a clue about RH. There are so few of us about. Have you read the thread, (its getting longer!!!) If you use the search button you'll find more. I also have a blog about my journey. its called 'A Reactionary' It took me a long time and a great consultant to recognise the symptoms, (there are so many) that until you read about them and put them together, you realise its you! The prolonged glucose test is always abandoned as soon as you hypo. thats standard practice. because once you go low thats the 'Reaction' part of the condition. Are you very low carbing? If so you will probably need to eat little and often every three hours is the max time to go without some food. You say you need not take weight off, I recommend more protein and more full fat into your diet. Like Butter or full fat cream or full fat yoghurt. There are so many recipes on the low card diet forum. My advice to you is stop eating carbs and sugars as much as you can, They are like poison to the condition. You could say that I know I'm allergic to them. If they advise complex carbs, you can get them from vegetables, like salads, i eat at least one a day. You don't need to eat grains at all, as well as rice, pasta, potatoes and the like, you can have small pieces of fruit through the day for those vitamins and a few carbs. Stay away from fruit concentrate like sports drinks and coke. Diet drinks are fine, in moderation. My best two pieces of advice are. if you have a hypo, have a dry plain biscuit and a cuppa tea or coffee, black no sugar, to raise them slowly. Have a low carb small meal as soon as you can. dont touch glucose as this will only put you back into hypo as you will have a yo-yo effect. If youre feeling rough, do a fasting day, this will normalise your blood glucose levels. I've done it a few times now. Water is fine or black tea or coffee. If you have any more questions [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER] will answer. Hope this helps Best Wishes Nosher [/QUOTE]
