[QUOTE="Discovery22, post: 1980192, member: 495383"] Hi, I’m not on any medication for my blood sugars and haven’t seen anybody about Rh. I was finally diagnosed in October after coping with it for years. Every time I went to see my gp he said it’s impossible to suffer with low blood sugar unless you take insulin. I went back to my gp the other day and told him I’m really having trouble with it now and he recommended to keep my sugar levels on the high side!!!! He really doesn’t get it. I avoid sugar like the plague in general as it’s guarenteed to make me crash. I eat carbs in moderation and if I’m having a bad sugar day my levels will continuously drop until I eat a meal with carbs then it will stabilise. I eat lots of protein including having boiled eggs for breakfast with either brown bread or crackers. Unfortunately I have to avoid nuts and seeds and too much fibre as I also have diverticular disease. Most days I can control things and know what I can and can’t do to keep it stable but then I have these days where it just drops throughout the day. Normally it would take around an hour and a half for me to crash after going high (as it did with my extended GTT) but on these days it drops when it hasn’t even gone high...within half an hour. They are also querying if I have a tumour at the moment and I’m wondering if that could be complicating things [/QUOTE]
