So far, I've been diagnosed or had positive tests for: (I take it with a grain of salt...and sorry I can't spell them all)
Fibromyalgia
Diabetes type II
Amenorea
Salt Sensitivity
Hypothyroidism
Celiacs
High BP
PMDD
Depression (If you had that much wrong with you, you'd probably be depressed too, lol)
Shin Splints (I know, I'm an athlete)
Abdominal Tendonitis
Enlarged Liver
High liver enzymes
Migranes
Allergies (environmental and food)
Psoriasis
Chronic, systemic, antibotic-resistant Strep throat (3 years positive for it)
And have had viruses: Hep. B, Shingles, Pithoriasis Rosea, Epsteine Barr, West Nile (it's not as bad as the papers made it out to be) and Mono
So I'm 24, I live a low carb, gluten free life and do the best I can. Have been on several medications and just haven't found the right ones yet. Still hoping I can. | Perhaps you don't have Type 2 diabetes, but Type 1.5 (or LADA). Another DF member suggested this possibility to me in my case, and am now waiting for further tests. You should have your c-peptide level checked. |
