For the last few weeks my Hypoglycemia is acting up. I have had no problem with it since I started this journey. It seems to have triggered by exercise...See I always new exercise was wrong I don't want to start eating every 2 hours....That would be hard for me...

What have others done to control this beast?

those are also the symptoms of dumping. i wonder if this happened from ice cream (which is a liquid and therefore exits the stomach really fast), if its not hypoglycemia but dumping.

I didn't dump though that is the thing. I did pass out and felt like I had the shit beat out of me for 2 days. That my nut said would happen as well.

The thing is I don't think it is talked about much on here and it is something that happens to a lot of WLS patients...Scared the shit out of me let me tell you!

Hey RJ, are you able to tolerate the dannon greek light and fit yogurts?

The last few days each time I've had any of the fruit flavors of it I seem to have a reaction. Its clearly not dumping...feels more like this whole hypoglycemia episode. Its strange.

I do have RH, could these flavors be causing a flare up??

How are you feeling now? I've been trying to follow your posts.

How do you know if you have hypoglycemia?

Nope @@gomekast I can't. I can eat vanilla and coconut but not the fruit ones. My blood sugar has been all over the place. My daughter has been helping me try to settle it. I had a bad attack last night and this morning. I ate white bread and cheese for lunch. No, no,

From now on it is multi-grain bread a little slice of fruit and a Protein. That seems to settle it. This morning it want from 10.1 to 2.2 and then back up to 5.3....

No more white flour or refined sugar for me. I have to attack this like someone would who has Dietetics....

Complex carbs with a bit of protein and a little fresh fruit....

Can't depend on protein alone it does not turn to sugar fast enough. So I have to eat a combo of it....Some fun eh Bambi!

How do you know if you have hypoglycemia?

I was diagnosed with it 18 years ago. If you think you have it, talk with your pcp about it. The first step is that. They will get you set up to monitor and track everything you eat and times and then you'll test your blood with a glucose monitor to corilate with symptoms and times.

See!!! I knew it was the fruit flavors! ! Earlier in the week, I had the orange cream flavor and got sick from that. This morning I had strawberry banana. No buenos.

I have been totally fine up until I ate those. Haven't had an episode for at least a good month or so..until I had those.

I haven't had bread or flour since before my surgery, so at least I've got that going for me. But this fruit flavored yogurt thing is really trippy.
