Does anyone recognise these symptoms?
PLEASE HELP!!!
shes booked into a doctor but I need ideas of what this could be?
could be diabetes, thyroid, pcos or iron deficiency. hope it’s nothing but iron.
White tongue might also be from candida albicans fungus – start her on plain (unsweetened no fruit) yogurt. The fatigue, dizziness, body aches, irregular periods could be due to low blood sugar – which one expert I read said could be caused by a systemic candida albicans syndrome. The doctor should add a fasting blood insulin test to the blood tests he/she should request. That will rule out low blood sugar, which is otherwise not detectable by a fasting blood glucose test. If a glucose tolerance test is considered, please ask for a 5-hour, as a 3 hour does not always detect low blood sugar.
