Insulin Spike
Sat, 07/23/2016 - 13:04Topic: Epilepsy.com Help
Pittsburgh:
A few years back, I got tired of being requested to leave a public library and getting stopped mid-day to see if I wanted some “Meth”. This had to be the volatility meds in my system. And got my meds cut in half.
They requested that I went for an Osteoporosis Test and found out it was in the extreme. I altered diet by replacing the bulk of my “Light Carbs” with beans, vegetables and nuts. This seizures disappeared until my second Osteoporosis Test came back positive but reasonable.
The seizures are coming back on and off but they are following my intake of “Light Carbs”. A non-medical laymen would say the an excessive insulin spike is pushing meds out of my system.
Is there a doctor in the Pittsburgh area willing to prove or disprove what I am talking about before they put me on anther exotic med?
