The only thing I would get out of going to the doctor would be confirmation of my suspicions, and relief that it's not something more serious. Those are still good enough reasons to go. But I don't really feel like i'm in any serious trouble, since I think I understand what's going on.

Well, like I said, Gwen's had enormous improvement in her sugar swings after she went on that diet for a while--she's been off it for over a year now, but is still vastly improved from hw brittle she used to be. .

While there isn't a cure, things definately can be improved. And it's not a bad idea to rule out anything else being a problem. Even thogh it is admittedly a PITA to do so.
