Hypoxia and Medicine

Rare medical condition in which a person needs certain types of carbs?

I was wondering if this condition exists I saw on the tv show "House". The patient on the show had lost 100lbs going on a carb free diet, but then developed unexplained health problems such as pulmonary/cardiac issues. Dr. House discovers the lady has a rare condition which caused her symptoms because she went off carbs (I believe certain types of carbs if I remember right). I was just wondering if this medical condition exists and if it does, what the name of it is? Thanks
