Is This Hg? I Need Some Help Posted: 07-24-06 04:36am
Hi.
I'm pretty confident i'm not diabetic as I
had a urine test as part of a standard
medical at my gp surgery about 4 years
ago.
My main problem is sweating. It mainly
affects my forehead, chest, back and groin
areas and can be brought on by hot weather
and stress. I've been looking at
hyperhidrosis info for ages but have begun
to wonder whether it might be linked to my
diet.
I have realised that white bread really
bloats me up and makes me feel
uncomfortable for a while. Wholemeal
bread gives me no such problem so I don't
think it's a wheat intolerance.
I also realised that beer makes me very
tired and can give me a headache after a
couple of pints. I don't remember this
from when I was around 18 (i am now 30).
I recently discovered that if I drink
whisky, I have no such problem at all.
Could this be reactive hypoglycemia? I'm
in the uk and understand that it is not
officially recognised as a legitimate
disorder so i'm not sure what to do about
it.
Anyway, i'd be very grateful for any info
you can give me. Thanks!

It could be hypoglycemia, but it sounds
like your symptoms are pretty minor. A
good diet will keep it from getting worse,
if it even can. If you're drinking
alcohol and not going crazy it's not that
bad. Just be careful. Try a better
diet and see what happens if you want.
