How did they treat that?

Or does it eventually pass?

Re: [ ] Re: possible hypoglycemia condition

Glad to hear that (it sounds like) you did it right. And I apologize if I

sounded like I was lecturing. But you can't imagine how many people try to

post here that don't have the faintest idea what we're about and have never

read Walford or our files (which are jam packed with information and have

the " best " of our posts).

Good luck and hopefully it's not serious.

Some might remember my posts a few months back about a relative who was

doing everything right and yet became very sick. The upshot of a long and

arduous medical work-up was that he had been bitten by a tic sometime in the

past, contracted Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (without realizing it) and

while his body fought it off, he developed an auto-immune response. He is

now well, but the process of finding out what his problem was took months

and months.

His problem was no longer RMSF which had long since come and gone. His problem became vasculitis (an auto immune response in which his body was attacking his blood vessels (IIRC). It’s treated with steroids.
