Answers:
I think you definatly need to get yourself to a doctor!. Make sure you tell them you want to be tested for hypoglycemia!. There are 2 kinds of hypoglycemia that affect people without Diabetes!. They are Reactive and Fasting!. With Reactive(what I have) your blood sugar will go really high when you eat sugar or carbs, then your body will overreact and produce too mcuh insulin causing your blood sugar to crash!. This usually happens about 2-4 hours after you finished your last meal!. Websites will tell you that Fasting hypoglycemia happens 5 hours after your last meal!.!.!.!. not quite true!. You can go Hypo anytime!. Between meals, overnight, while exercising!.!.!. ectera!. Fasting is easier to catch though- because your blood sugar will be less that 45 when you go in for a Fasting Glucose test(which is one you NEED to get!)!. For this you fast for 8-12 hours(overnight) depending on the lab then go in and they'll draw blood and check your levels!.

When I get mildly low(around the 60s) I get irritable!. I'll snap at my best friend if they're asking how my day was!. When I get into the 50's I'll start shaking!. I'll get really tired and want to take a nap!.
I know once I start sweating that i'm in trouble!. Then I'm in in the low 40's or upper 30's!. I'll get very weak and confused!. I'll be unable to keep my thoughts clear!.
Get yourself to a doctor, tell them you suspect hypoglycemia!. Be persistant!. Most doctors don't believe nondiabetics can become Hypo!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you eat and feel better, it sounds like this is a nutritional problem!. Your blood sugar is getting too low, and the protein/carb combo will help stabilize it for much of the day!. Try having something substantial with protein for breakfast!. Don't skip meals!. If you are concerned about your weight, here are some good options:

Lean Pockets breakfast sandwiches
2 eggs + 1 piece of toast
Yogurt + nuts
High-protein cereal with skim milk!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes, please, go get it checked out again!. is there diabetes in your family!? have you ever had a glucose tolerance test!? perhaps you should think about a nutritionist or dietician if you are medically cleared!. it could just be that you need to put yourself on a more regular schedule with regards to meals!. good luck and feel better!Www@Answer-Health@Com

low blood sugar or hypoglycemia can be diagnosed by the symptoms!.
If not properly treted it can cause severe problems and can be fatal!.

Go to the doctor, it's probably worth it!. Diabetes, you could have it especially if it's been from a close relative!. I also wonder why people who think they don't feel good just don't got to the doctor :-/Www@Answer-Health@Com
