[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1018635, member: 85785"] No, you don't come across as blunt or a jerk wether you are or not! No need to apologise either! I believe the op is a bit confused and I was trying to help. However it didn't come across as well as I had hoped. She asked to lose weight, and I have lost a lot of weight since diagnosis. It was the excess insulin that was make me gain weight. The only thing that has worked has been a very low carb lifestyle. Which I was recommended by some really knowledgeable people on this site. Having a certain blood glucose disorder has opened my eyes to how to be completely in control of my levels and what to do to stay there! Not eating carbs and sugars to a very low-level is not fun to someone who was brought up on chips with everything! And Sunday roasts! I would rather trust my endocrinologist because he saved my life and everything he has said has come true. I have researched an awful lot on how my condition is effectively trying to kill me and why. There is a similarity with diabetes of all types because of how my body interacts nutritionally, the way my body deals with glucose, glucagon, glycogen, hormones, alpha and beta cells, insulin, etc. I was originally diagnosed T2. My doctor struggled with my diagnosis and only my consultant seems to be one of a few that recognises what RH is. T1s don't have it easy, but neither do I! I'm weird, medically! There is a cure on the horizon for T1, there isn't one for RH, it won't kill me as such, but it won't help into my old age. Ok, I'm glad you helped her and that is what I was trying to do. Hopefully she gets her wishes! [/QUOTE]
