In 2004, I was seen at the emergency room with an unknown illness and, I was feeling so sick I thought I was dieing.
Last Winter 2009, I was once more in the emergency room three more times this time they did all sort of test with blood urine, and stool. Each time, the doctor would ask how I was treating my Hypoglycemia and Diabetes. I did not know what to think since I had sudden lost 77 pounds practically overnight it seems. (Un-ententional weight loss) My question is how can I have diabetes with being only 123 lbs and no muscle tone or meat on my body? I can see the Hypoglycemia but, surely not diabetes as they say. How can you have diabete with a BMI 18 and 123 lbs and only 5 feet 11 inches tall?
