Don't worry that one person "picked" on your post, to me to be hung up on tests results is beyond comprehension, I guess I'm "old" enough to remember simpler times when we didn't depend so much on such things but more on how we felt, and so did the good doctors.
In any case, I'm not diabetic either but as a hypoglycemic of many years who has had periods of IR I know I have to be careful so this is a good reminder for me to continue with my CP which I take very irregularly. Like you though, I've noticed sometimes it would make my sugar drop, so I think more people with diabetes should really try it.
I agree 100% with your last paragraph and I'm glad you mentioned this. Years ago, reading posts at the celiac.com forum I learned that when people stayed away from gluten and ate it again they'd react worse than before, which didn't seem to make sense to me at the time, and with me it seemed, at least in the beginning, that I was "getting away with it", then after a few weeks, even after I'd already stop, wham! All hell would break loose! Weeeelllll, now that I've experienced it myself, just like you have (same pain on the left side, etc.) I know better. And I'm even suspecting some of my foods may have hidden gluten because when I began having my "attacks" I'd been off most grains for several weeks but I was getting the colics big time. I think I'm going to have to look up one of those detailed lists of hidden gluten and start taking things more seriously, for example, I used to eat oatmeal every now and then (not too often because it often made me hungrier later) and rye crackers or bread because I had no overt symptoms. I just gave to a friend an almost full container of oats I had because I can live without them but I'm still hesitating to throw away some organic German style rye bread slices with nuts that are in my freezer (hate to throw away bread). I've been tempted to have it one more time to see what happens, but on the other hand, I don't want to mess up the little progress I've made in the last 11 days so even if it "hurts" I may end up tossing them in the trash...
