Anyone have this happen?

November 13, 2002

I am nearly 30 months out from surgery. I was dx'd with diabetes a couple of

weeks before I underwent the surgery. After surgery, I was just fine, had no

ups or downs in blood sugars. Now, 2 1/2 years out, the diabetes has

returned with a vengeance, and it is scaring me to death. Especially due to

the fact that I am not doing sugar. The natural sugars that are in the food

I eat are in the single digits, yet I am up in the 250 range, and plummeting

into the 70 range within an hour after a protein drink! I'm feeling

horrible, I've been dizzy in the mornings, and breaking out in cold

sweats...getting up all night long to use the bathroom (every 2 hours), and

had no idea what was going on until I started feeling like my hypoglycemia

was back (shakey and hungry)...and I began to monitor my blood sugars again.

That's when I found my sugar was out of control. This has been going on now

for at least the past couple of weeks. Has anyone else had this experience

at this point after surgery, thinking that this comorbidity was gone for

good, only to have it raise it's ugly head again for no apparent reason? I

could understand if I was hitting the sugar...but I'm as straight as an

arrow! There was no way I was going to go back to my prior ill-health! Yet,

it seems it is happening without my help! I'm going to the doc tomorrow, and

see what we can do to sort this out. I've been keeping a written record of

everything that has gone into my mouth, and every blood sugar reading...hope

this helps her get a handle on it. Any ideas from you brainy people out

there will be appreciated too.

Regards~
