Diabetes or something else???
Hey Doc-
I have a client who has started his first cycle. Diet very good, yet steadily increased cals from good fats , carbs and more protein over 6 weeks time. As we speak more- I believe he shows signs of Diabetes. His father and grandfather were diabetic. He is healthy yet can eat a large portion meal and be very hungry within 30 mins. He is excessivley thirsty and urinating alot. With all the total cal. intake he should have put on much more weight han he has.
In anticipation, I changed his diet to a lo carb with high efa's and only real carbs is postworkout shake. His weight immediatley stabilized and he gained a couple pounds.
Sent him to a doc that did a quick test and his Glucose was 83. I told him he needed a fasted state test and it came back no higher than 103. I am now sending him for a 2 hour GTT as my last resort. I feel he shows the signs and the diet change bears that out, yet the tests do not. Is there anything else I am missing or should consider?
