hypoglycemia

[dacer123 0]

I'm a little over a year out from my surgery and I think I'm getting hypoglycemia. I keep getting these episodes where I suddenly get lightheaded, irritable, kinda hot, and almost dizzy. My glucometer from when I had gestational diabetes five years ago is broken so I can't check my blood sugar, but I know it isn't my blood pressure because I did check it and it was fine. Once I eat something, then I feel okay. Has anyone experienced this? I got it today even after I had eaten something, but I got full quickly so maybe I hadn't eaten enough because I got this episode about an hour after that, but felt better once I ate some sugar. I wonder if I should start carrying around some glucose tablets.

Ok I am hypoglycemic and do not have any issues so afar withthe band and my sugars. But I would call your doctor first thing in the morning and make an appointment for fasting blood work and a sugar test. If it is hypoglycemia its not something you want to mess with.

I hope that you feel better soon.

That is what it sounds like to me. I was hypoglycemic before kids, then when i was preg with daughter it turned to gestational diabetis, afterward the larger i got the worse it was, I turned to insulin resistant but I am happy to say i am off Metformin, but I have to watch because it drops low fast now if i do not eat enough Protein. I know that feeling and I hate to have it. Go to the doctor and check, then you can adjust diet accordingly. GOOD LUCK
