[QUOTE="RH G, post: 2744044, member: 595293"] [USER=85785]@Lamont D[/USER] thanks for your reply. Yes, I did think the 1.5 was quite low. That was after 2 hours however after 5 hours my blood sugar began to naturally correct itself. I have no complaints with my endocrinologist. She has treated me like a pun cushion and done loads of different tests, most of which I won't pretend to understand. My GP served it's purpose by quickly referring me to endo and I've since had zero interaction with them regards my RH. I keep well otherwise and to be fair it's quite an acute and rear thing from what I've heard and read so don't really expect loads of knowledge from them. The 72hr fast was a bit meh...if you know what I mean. Obviously hungry bot no crazy lows as far as I remember. It did however as far as my endo is concerned, rule out an Insulinoma which I suppose was the purpose. In terms of dietary advice I've been advised less than 30g carbs per meal. Nothing further really though also suggested I try pectin. That's why I've considered the injections. As I understand it, Pectin slows the release of sugar into the blood stream and prevents large spikes which in theory stops big drops/ hypos. I thought Mounjaro/ Wegovy could possibly mimic this with the added bonus of weight loss/ ginger receptors being toned down a little! I am content with my RH. It's manageable and there are people worse off than I. Just need to keep working on myself (manage weight and diet etc). Small inconveniences like medical three year driving license/ loss of blue light driving but I can deal with these. Thanks for your reply. Any further insights would be appreciated. Cheers [/QUOTE]
