[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2681563, member: 85785"] Hi [USER=585640]@RobbieRob[/USER] I have RH and the symptoms you are having are classic RH. You may have to start testing your BG levels before and after food, just to discover which carbs or sugars are causing the symptoms, hypoglycaemia and the impact they have. A food diary and a dietary change is so important to managing the condition. The majority of those giving dietary advice for RH, are so completely wrong and don't understand the science behind the reasons why our bodies react to food. For example, I was diagnosed with lactose intolerance when very young. My doctor and the others that followed, told me to avoid dairy. Which I do. So no reaction to the intolerance. However, when my doctors told me that I was diagnosed with RH. My first question was about carb intolerance? And why is all medical advice insist on carbs. When all carbs are bad for me. (Ish,) (very, very, very low) He finally came around to my reasoning, when he was the results and not having the hypos. Read the RH forums. There is plenty of good advice shout low carb, and walking is good exercise. And the 72 (80) hours fasting test was fun. I hope you learned a lot about fasting and not going hypo for a few days. I had my first clear head after a day or so, on the fast, it was really the first time in years, I had so much energy, not tired, and felt really good. I still use intermittent fasting, for a good few reasons. I hope this helps. Keep asking. Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
