Hi everyone. Just joined this forum. I was told by my GP that I was pre diabetic a couple of months ago but no advice given so thankfully I found this site. I've been lurking, reading and testing for the last month and thanks to Brunneria I was pointed in the direction of RH. Reading through all of the posts everything seemed to fall into place. A bit about my symptoms over the last 20 plus years...
Episodes of dizziness accompanied by nausea, cold sweat, shaking
Very vivid dreams
Waking exhausted
Waking with racing heart and shaking
Panic attacks
Falling asleep immediately after eating
Gradual weight increase - all around the middle
Food intolerance
IBS
I have noticed if my blood glucose stays in the 5s and low 6s I feel fine but anything lower or higher and the dizziness etc starts. It has made my life a misery at times especially fainting in public and missing work. I have started on LCHF and I am hoping for good things. Apart from low blood pressure the doctors have said there is nothing wrong with me and simply put me on antidepressants for anxiety
