Could This Be Hypoglycemia? Posted: 03-17-06 11:14am
My husband has been getting severely
irritable in the afternoons for the past 3
weeks. And there doesn't seem to be a
mental, or environmental trigger for these
episodes. I am grasping at straws trying
to figure out what could be causing these
episodes and I began to wonder if it could
be his blood sugar b/c sometimes he wakes
up in the middle of the night craving
sugar and if we don't have anything sweet
he eats granulated sugar. Does any of
this sound familiar? Or am I on the wrong
track?

Hi,
does your husband feel better after he's
eaten dinner? If he really craves sugar
there's a good indication that he may be
hypoglycemic.
Since my blood sugar is more stable, it's
amazing how much better sleep at night
too.
It's really worth looking into since it
can improve a person's quality of life so
much.

Yes, he needs to let us know what his
current diet is and what happens when he
eats and what his symptoms are. He will
need to be tested too.
