[QUOTE="traybroth, post: 2408159, member: 544135"] Hello, thankyou for your reply. I am already under an endocrinologist because I had immunotherapy which caused damage to my one remaining adrenal gland. (I lost a kidney and adrenal gland to kidney cancer a few years ago) I needed replacement cortisol for a while, until the adrenal gland recovered. Still under the endo team though. Do I raise these night time readings with my endo consultant or my GP? I have regular chest & abdo CT scans with me having advanced kidney cancer, I have had them every 3 months for the last few years, my pancreas is clear of any metastatic spread. I had read about insulinoma but I think it would have been spotted on my regular CT scans if that was the case. I have been able to do fingerprick test when I have woken, therefore I can see the results are fairy acurate. I have had a couple of hypoglycemia events early morning too, just after 9am when I have been awake and active. I know something is happening without me having to scan the CBM because my hands shake, I feel dizzy and weak. If I didn't have the pacemaker inserted then I think I would probably pass out. [/QUOTE]
