Re: low blood sugar (Pam)

[Guest guest]

Pam,

We all have our weak points, lol. Mine is not sugar thankfully but it is for

stuff like chili and steak... I have tried eating both in the not so distant

past... and what a mistake that was. I was soooo sick both times. Was not

cool. And the dumping, well I have had that since before I had my Gall bladder

surgery 3 years ago. Its no fun either... do you only get it with sugars? I

get it with everything I eat. You are right it sucks.

That angel food cake sounds pretty yummy though I can't blame you for wanting

some.

Hi

I ate two pieces of angel food cake last night with a couple of scoops of no fat

ice cream and caramel syrup. I know I shouldn't have....but I was tired and it

tasted so good! But at 4 o'clock in the morning I woke up in a puddle of sweat

, clammy and felt really weird. I thought I was having an anxiety attack but

them I remembered all the sugar I consumed before bedtime. I guess that is what

is was. I took a zanax and had some candy and it took about a half and hour but

I was able to go back to sleep..........Pam ga

Yeah - I am interested. What 'talk' did your PCP have with you?

The dumping from too much sugar is no fun. I do fine with sugar unless I

overdo. One time I ate two white chocolate macadamia nut cookies. I had just

finished the second one when it hit. I cussed myslef up one side and down the

othter for being so dumb! I haven't overdone it on sugar since and that was

about 4 months ago!

Yes, I am feeling better. I just got home from the hospital a little while ago.

Re: low blood sugar ( and Lanie)

,

Are you feeling any better? I was worried about you when you didn't post

yesterday, Whew!!! I am glad that you are ok...

My sister in law had the procedure 6 wks ago, and she doesn't follow any of

the rules... I wonder how she can do that and not get sick? I don't plan on

cheating, but with side effects such as you described, I don't think I will want

to after the first time!

I have my initial appointment for the surgery Sept. 20th at 3pm. I'm nervous

and excited at the same time.

I have been doing a lot of research in the last few days, about Gastric bypass

and Chronic panc... I have good info that you may want Lanie, in case you get

the same 'talk' from your primary as I did. If you are interested just drop me

a post here ok??

Take care and feel better!
