I went back to the Allergist specialist today (another two hr trip.. the third this week Ive had for appointments).. as my test results were in. To my surprise my blood test results came back saying I have Hyperinsulinemia. So this now also gives me the diagnoses of having Sydrome X.
My fasting Insulin is at 16 (normal is under 11). My 1hr insulin at 52 (normal 9-45). So basically this means Im being poisoned by Insulin.
I was soo surprised at this result as my gyno had me get the same test done only a month ago and it came back in normal ranges. (thou when i rang my CFS/ME specialist tonight to make appointment with him.. he said my other test thou in normal ranges, was actually showing insulin issues as well and he had been planning to speak to me about this after recieving my results from the gynocologist).
Anyway.. I have very clear abnormal insulin results showing up now.
Its weird how one mth I can get test results in normal range.. and next month.. showly show issues. I wonder if this is like everything else with the CFS/ME.. all up and down and over the place. One cant trust any of my test results.
So ive now been told if i dont go change my diet to suit my insulin issue.. Im going to end up with diabetes and probably heart issues too. (the specialist actually told me that I WILL end up with those issues if i dont now do special diet). I actually have the diabetes genotype too.
I dont know whether to laugh or cry as my not good doctor is really going to HATE this!! and hate that i now have another issue to be bringing with me to appointments. I'd love to see his face when he gets my results from the specialist.
