Re: my story and final true diagnosis

Thanks Hv, that explains a few things. I've never had adrenal problems, but a lot of the supps and herbs I take do support the adrenal glands, even though I'm taking them for other issues.

What bothered the specialist so much was that my BSL is stable at such a low level, it has not gotten above 4.8 and averages about 4.2, he tells me that a BSL of 6-8 is normal, and that I should be trying to achieve this. I do not feel any hypoglycaemic symptoms at 4.2, even though I'm told I should. If my BSL get to 2 or below, then I have hypo symptoms.

I don't have type 2 diabetes, or any other kind of diabetes, the over production of insulin is due to a genetic condition that effects my pancreas and liver enzyme production. I know it is the insulin that causes the damage to organs, but I have no indication of any organ damage (I have been tested extensively for many years), and I often wondered why this is so.

Lastly, would the use of silica (DE) help with the prevention of micro bleeds in the eye, and with strengthening the blood vessels and capilleries, and could the fact that I'm taking silica, mean that I'm mitigating any damage that might be caused by the insulin overproduction?
