i recently had a 3 HourGTT and the result was a reading of 54 at 3 hours. during the test my sugar level only rose to 121. My family internist says I have uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes. I don't understand this since my result was low. Wouldn't this be hypoglycemia? I had orthostatic hypotension with lightheadedness and legs weak. Episode of legs collapse when got out of bed at 3:00 AM. What is this about and do I need medical attention? My Dr. just says watch simple carbs.
I am currently taking requip 3 mg 4xdaily; Norvasc 10mg;zoloft 50mg; and clonazapam 1mg at bedtime. All I can get for answers of my symptoms is that it is the Parkinsons, which I don't think is corrrect diagnosis but a given diagnosis because they have not an answer to my symptoms of trenor; arm leg foot wrist weakness, pain right rear rib cage and stiff diaphram, burning numb tingling feet hands toes fingers, shock sensations hands and lower arms on an off. I have cervical and lumbar disc degenerstion with disc bulge in c-spine and protruding disc in L-spine. MRIs are 2 and 5 years old. Any advice?
