Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lamont D" data-source="post: 2417447" data-attributes="member: 85785">I do wish you could read my medical history or my blog.I was feeling a bit strange and looked horrible, this was in work and and like you sent to my doctors. I was on a production line most of my working life.I was really ill in 2012/13, because I was misdiagnosed with T2 in 2009.Because of being totally having no medical knowledge, I didn't have a clue what was happening to me.I'm not diagnosing you, because I can't, forum rules.But was found to have carb intolerance, and only when I didn't eat carbs constantly, would be the only part of the day when I didn't have brain fog.This contradicts the diagnosis of T2, because my last Hba1c was 37 and my fasting levels are usually normal. Around 4.5mmols.So why the misdiagnosis?If I had my usual porridge in the morning, water and no sugar, no milk because I have had lactose intolerance since forever. My blood glucose levels would quickly get up to mid teens, so if the bloods were taken in the first couple of hours after the porridge, then my blood glucose levels were in diabetic range.My doctors didn't have a clue.Ignorance is not bliss.Ignorance from these doctors was killing me.My specialist endocrinologist who I was referred to in 2013 had a hunch it was not T2.He directed me to this site and recommended a low carb diet.This along with intermittent fasting has improved my health. I had a cat scan last month, all clear, all normal, nothing to worry about.Not bad for an old lodger.There is no way I could say that I know what is happening to you, but if it's anything like me, you could have some type of blood dysregulation. I have Hypoglycaemia and suggest you read the reactive hypoglycaemia forum, because somethiyour sng that is on there to remind you of your symptoms.Keep safe</blockquote>
