Hypoglycemia Posted: 07-31-03 09:18am
Hi I have just been diagnosed with
hypoglycemia. I am 20 yrs. old and I dont
know much about this. I went to the doc.
and they did a 6 hour glucose test, my
blood sugar level dropped to 39 which is
dangeroulsy low. i am on a strict diet
that doesnt seem to be helping me to much.
i still get shaky and tingly in arms and
legs, lightheaded, headaches, and
extremely tired all the time. Im not
really to sure what to do, if i should try
another type of doc. or what. I just hope
that this hasnt turned into something
else, more severe since i have waited
about a couple years to get diagnosed. if
you have any advice i sure need it.
Thank you

Hi, my best friend has this condition, she
always keep saltine crakers or something
of the sort with her at all times, when
she starts feeling the symptoms coming on
sort to speak, she eats a few or more than
a few to help offset the condition. Good
luck
