This is going great...
Sorry for the delay SJ, stuff like this we should all be right on top of...
not to really attempt a diagnosis, but to give you some confidence in the care your bride to be is receiving.
Endocrine disorders are incredibly difficult to diagnose in person let alone over the internet...
but I will say that she has done a wonderful job by losing her weight and beginning an excercise program. 5'5" and 135 is about as close to ideal as any woman may want to be. The "runway waife" that is popularized by many magazines is an overstatement of the minority.
I absolutely agree with what has already been said int that she should continue to eat 4-5 small balanced meals each day. This will help to minimize great highs and lows in her blood sugar levels.
She may also consider keeping a diary of her activities and a running menu of everything she eats and drinks for her next doctor visit.
Another thing to consider...any possibility she is pregnant? (feel free not to answer that publicly, but something to think about)
Her physician is going to be your number 1 resource for information and Q&A. She has the right to ask questions on her condition and care.
Please keep us up to date on her progress...and have confidence in those who are taking care of her. YOUR confidence and support will boost her outlook...regardless of what the final diagnosis is.
My apologies for not answering up sooner...much happenings right now.
