Reactive Hypoglycemia and anemia, almost 3 years out

I managed to lose my weight and keep it off, but about a year ago they diagnosed me with Reactive Hypoglycemia. I wear a monitor and eat very low carb. I recently spent the day in the ER due to being light headed and the only thing that showed up was my red blood counts were slightly low. Otherwise I feel pretty good, like the way I look (except some loose skin) Love wearing a size 4, but sometimes it is hard to find my size. Funny, that was an issue when I was in the 200's. Now I look at the larger sizes and wish they were in my size, lol. Picture of me on the right.

    it's not super common but definitely not unheard of among bypass patients. Glad to hear you've got a handle on it...

  • Hugs to you. ER visits are tough and long. I hope your primary doctor and team get to the bottom of the light headedness. Congrats on so much success!

  • I was dx with hypoglycemia & I really have to watch the sugar in everything I eat. There are medicines specifically for it. ‘Hope you find the one that works well for you! You look wonderful!

Congratulations for your loss and keeping it off. Someone else just recently posted a thread about hypoglycemia. I have to admit I don’t know much about it. Glad to hear you seem to have figured out how to live with it though.
