sweating, naseau, dull pain under left and right ribs, low blood sugar

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone and Merry Christmas from Southern Illinois,

I have some medical problems and I really would like to know if this

is familiar to all suffering from pancreatic problems.

PLEASE RESPOND if you have any advise at all.

I will appologize in advance for the long post.

In January of this year I was living in Vallejo, CA and had a

successful gallbladder removal. No post surgery problems except for

normal gastro issues afterwards. ( I.e Diareaha) I moved home to

Southern Illinois in Febuary and was doing fine health wise, couldn't

have been better. Then at Easter of this year I had a life threatning

episode of low blood sugar (24) on glucose scale. I don't have

diabeteas. I was overweight. Paramedics helped me get it back up. But

it dropped again that day and I was hospitalized for 2 days after

that. They did several blood test and nothing came back abnormal. I

then was sent home and told to eat better and more often. I did that

and cut out my sugar intake as well as caffine completely. I began

experiencing tummy problems immediatly. I had daily diareha and pain

under right rib cage and occasionally under left ribs. I was severely

naseous after eating and would vomit several times a week. Went to

doctor and they said was probably reflux and put me on Protonix.

Didn't help, switched me too Nexium and made tummy hurt worse. Then

started me on Prevacid and it works wounders. No more tummy problems.

BUTTTT I still have bad pain under my right ribs, and now it is

really starting to hurt under left ribs and stretching into my back.

This normally happens after I eat and sometimes in between meals as

well. I feel like I run a fever after I eat as well and the naseau

has came back a little after I eat. A good day for my blood sugar

levels is to hit the 80's I wake up to a 60 - 68 reading then after a

breakfast of 2 eggs scrambled with a cooking spray and 1 piece of

toast it will get up tp maybe mid 70's till I eat lunch. Then it will

read in the mid 80's for remainder iof day and night with drops to

low 70's if I don't keep grazing on pretzels or cracker or something

until dinner. What scares me the most is my shakiness and diziness

and fainting speels I get sometimes and my heart races. Doc said I

was having panic attack so I went to a counselor for that and it

helped to talk about my concerns, but I think my health was getting

better at the same time and the panick attacks really subsided. But

now I am getting all these sympton again and I know it is not panic,

I can just be sitting at work minding my own business and I will

start sweating and get nauseous and faint like and not be in my right

mind and very confused and I have pain under left ribs. I chek my

sugar and it is at 73 and for me that is normal with low blood sugar

symptoms. I have a feeling this is all related to the pancreas and a

malfunction or abnormality. I have had a sonagram and it came back

with no abnomalities visable, blood work is fine according to docs.

When I was hospitialized m white blood count was high, but it is

normal ever since. By the way. I am losing lots of weight and it

doesnt alarm doctor. 50 pounds in 6 months with most of it with in

the first three months after changing eating habits. Does anyone have

any advise as to what you think this might be and what I should do

next.. I dont have medical insurance anymore so I am doing all of

this with cash out of poket and it is breaking me financially. I am a

33 year old female with no previous health issues except for the

gallbladder in January. This is consuming my life. Please help and

God Bless.
