From: 2q3y4ga86t1d68e on 11 Sep 2007 22:52 Hi, I have noticed that sometimes when I go for a walk for exercise I find that my thoughts become what I would call "depressed". I find I keep asking myself what is the point of life etc. It's peculiar because I recognize this as a distinct state of mind that I find recognizable. When I get home if I have a glass of juice or some fruit I'm better right away. Is this hypoglycemia? I recently had a blood test as part of a medical checkup and my doctor didn't say anything about low blood sugar. I'm trying to lose weight so I need advice on if this is a known phenomena are there things I can do to minimize the effects. I wonder if my mood is being effected in more subtle ways that I might not be aware of and can anything be done about it? Thanks

One can not go by symptoms alone to determine a hypo. However, in some cases, it's better to err on the safe side and go by symptoms which might include feeling faint, sweaty, dizzy, shaky, disoriented, extremely hungry, etc. Did you ask for a copy of your labs? If not, you should. Drs. will often tell you things are fine when in fact something is out of range on your labs. If you don't have a copy, you will never know. And if you do have hypoglycemia, it can't usually be found out by a simple blood test. For that you would need an oral glucose tolerance test. You drink a glucose syrup and then have repeated blood draws over the course of several hours to see how you react to it. > > I'm trying to lose weight so I need advice on if this is a known phenomena > are there things I can do to minimize the effects.

Did you mention the problem to your Dr?

Get a meter know you BG level. A lot of the times I cant tell the difference between hyper and hypo until I use the meter. Jimmie

Did you mention the problem to your > Dr? This oral glucose tolerance test is inhumane!! Letting someone go through that suffering to almost and in some cases fainting!!! No medication from doctors anyway that will help.Just diet. I will not take it! I already know by blood glucose reading of 51 and symptoms and the relief of symptoms when consuming carbs that it is low blood sugar. Go to walgreens and get the test kit. |
