Guest guest Posted June 21, 2000 Report Share Posted June 21, 2000 you hit on something that has been happening to me with the last 30 lbs. The hypoglycemic reaction esp in the mid AM and if I am doing something very stressful and have not eaten. I thought here I go Diabetes here I come. My PCP did a A1C and all was OK but when it happens woah/. I was wondering after my MGB and had very little to eat if I would have this all day long. Great to hear how this works. This is why this list is so very important..... to get these questions answered since who is privy to a Dr 24/7 to all your questions when they finaly pop into your head.
