  1. I've been having many of the symptoms experienced with low blood sugar and was just recently
    diagnosed (based on the results of a GTT)as having borderline low blood sugar; however, my Dr. told
    me that the symptoms sound like the symptoms of ADD. I was wondering if anyone else was told that
    the symptoms experienced such as extreme fatigue, confusion, headaches, and instability when walking
    was ever told this and if so, what was actually wrong.

    That doesn't sound like ADD to me! ADD can cause trouble concentrating, trouble focusing, trouble
    finishing projects, blurting out thoughts without thinking, etc. How is your thyroid? Your symptoms
    could be from a thyroid problem. Perhaps you should see an Endocrinologist.

    I had ADD symptoms and diagnosis (from a neurologist specializing in ADD) including medications for
    some years. When T2 emerged and I reduced carbs and began controlling diet, etc, the ADD symptoms
    disappeared and haven't returned.

    ADD is apprently a collection of symptoms more than some specific narrowly defined condition.

    Before anyone starts flaming, YMMV. I can only provide my own opinion based on personal experience.

    I THOUGHT it was that, but non of Kelly's symptoms seemed to gell. Even those with severe ADD can
    still seem to walk in a straight line without a headache:-)

    low blood glucose can be tested. If you have these symptoms and your BG tests low on the BG meter
    you should have and be using then you know what the problem is.

    world filled with strife and terrorism.

    "To announce that there must be no criticism of the
    President, or that we are to stand by the President
    right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile,
    but is morally treasonable to the American public."
