Yes, I'm on sitagliptin, 100mg per day!
The only other meds I'm on is Irbesartan for hypertension, aspirin for blood thinning, and a antihistamine for itching at night! My health is good and I don't want to change after so long on the meds.
I have to be careful with meds because of the amount of lactose in tablets, so my aspirin is enterric, the others are fine!
Metformin and other drugs never worked for me, statin's crippled me!
Because my GPS didn't understand my symptoms and of course the misdiagnosis, they assumed that it was my diagnosis of T2, that was the cause of all my symptoms!
I would stop eating anything like pasta, the so called healthy carbs, will still spike you, and what we are trying to achieve is no spikes because that triggers the hypos!
Keep asking,
Best wishes
Hi Lamont D,
Thank you for your reply !!
I am glad that I am on the same medication as you, Sitagliptin !! Because my condition is so similar to yours...
You are on other medicines, but they are not for your Reactive Hypoglycemia, right ?
I don’t think I can take aspirin..., I had Stevens-Johnson Syndrome from Mobic ( Meloxicam ), so I am very careful for NSAIDs. Good thing for me is I can take Paracetamol !
You don’t eat any pastas, I should avoid them as well.. they made my blood glucose high.
What sort of carb do you take ? I am taking buckwheat (instead of rice) with rice substitute ( made from konjac, which is a carbohydrates but no calories ) for the breakfast and lunch. This is completely OK for my blood glucose.
You are also lactose intolerant . Are you gluten intolerant as well ? I am.
I sincerely appreciate your great help with your knowledge and experience !!
Thank you very much again.
Best Wishes.
