[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2065713, member: 85785"] Hi [USER=112692]@Lesleywo[/USER] You have an awful lot going on, too much in fact, with the different conditions. The one thing that I can recommend is to go low carb and avoid the food that is causing your symptoms. It has already come across that you do feel better already, even though you have just started. I do know what those cravings are like, but, as Brun has said, protein and fats, is better than feasting on those oh so nice sweet things! Temptation is cruel! If you do have RH, exercise can be a minefield, too much and you get liver dump, too little and you don't get the rewards, that is why I do a lot of walking, walking for fifteen minutes, fifteen minutes after a meal is a great way to keep control. Walking is good for blood glucose levels. Fasting is usually good for RH ers, because not having the response and reactive part of eating, gives your body time to reduce insulin levels,. The fast will not make you hypo if you have just RH, but with the other conditions, I don't know. This is something you can ask. Insulin, and if you have RH, will probably be the reason and cause for your weight issues, continuous blood sugar levels in near normal range is the best treatment for lowering your background insulin and not having the insulin response known as an overshoot, which causes the hypos. I have to wonder why you have not had the requisite tests for RH, even though your symptoms are similar, it might not be. Or what type of hypoglycaemia you have, there is not just RH! I also fear that, because of the symptoms, that, it may be asymptomatic of your other conditions. Until the tests are done, you won't know. Having a hba1c levels that is in normal levels is really great and keeping to a very low carb diet will help with all your conditions regardless, I just hope that your endocrinologist, can get around to a true diagnosis.
