For Hypoglycemia "I was prescribed Proglycem at age 15 months, and I am now 18 years 6 months. I have recently been told that it is likely that I must use diazoxide tablets because Proglycem is very expensive. I have tried to do so, but I get bad symptoms like headaches, nausea, etc. I do not know how my condition will be controlled if I am unable to continue with Proglycem. A professor at Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital, London, initially prescribed the drug, and I am sure, for me, it has been a lifesaver. Health professionals in the UK cannot tell me why Proglycem works for me, and the much cheaper diazoxide causes side effects. The use of all forms of diazoxide seems to cause excessive facial and body hair growth."
