[QUOTE="Trinkwasser, post: 34597, member: 11875"] Take the meter with you to your new doctor (that's a hint!) this sounds horribly like me when I was a child. Unfortunately it was written off as psychiatric in origin. BE VERY CAREFUL in case you get diagnosed with Munchausen's By Proxy, that's why I suggest taking the actual meter so they can see the actual readings. Check out Reactive Hypoglycemia, it is an early stage in some forms of Type 2, most of the RHs I know can recall symptoms going back to childhood which were similarly written off. Unfortunately one source of information says this must not be diagnosed in the absence of genuinely low hypo readings and a psychiatric disorder should be diagnosed instead - when the "psychiatric" symptoms are a response to the rapid BG drops rather than the actual lows. Treatment is to restrict carb input to eliminate the highs much as in "actual" Type 2 - which it will probably turn into later if untreated. [/QUOTE]
