glucose intoleranceFrom: Jennifer (anonymous@obgyn.net)Fri, 2 Mar 2001 22:54:56 -0600 (CST)
This week my doctor informed me that I am glucose intolerant, which could potentially be as a result of coeliac disease. It was discovered when she tested my adrenal hormone levels because I have been waking up in the middle of the night with dry mouth and often after thrashing restlessly. She found that my adrenal hormone levels were overstimulated at all times of the day, which can be related to glucose intolerance. I had been having gastrointestinal distress for several years, but not before my PCOS symptoms started. I am convinced that the glucose intolerance is related to my PCOS. I have cut out all foods with glucose and feel so much better already. I have seen much talk about low-carb diet on the PCOS chat pages, but it seems to all be related to weight-loss, not glucose intolerance related to insulin resistance. Has anyone had experience with this, or know where I could get more info on the connection? Jennifer
