Re: low blood sugar TO W

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

When you sugar drops low a good way to get it back up quick is OJ. And recently

someone told me that peanut better was another good way to get sugar up, But I

haven't try the peanut better trick yet. So I don't know how it would work on

me. I know what you mean about being shakey when you sugar get low. It

happens when my sugar gets high or low. I get the same reaction to both high &

low, so i have to take my sugar to see if it's high or low. I have this helps a

little. When mine goes high or low quickly is when I feel the worse, not when

it does it over a long period of time.

I hope your feeling better soon, as it's kind of scary. I also get like I'm in

a fog.

Take Care,

Re: low blood sugar

I need some help from those of you that are diabetics. This is the third day

in a row that I have an episode of just suddenly breaking out in a cold sweat

and becoming very shaky. This evening when it happened, I checked my glucose

and it was 53. I ate several pieces of candy and the sweating stopped but I

still feel like my insides are shaking to pieces and now I'm nauseated from the

candy.

My mom says she thinks my sugar is probably spiking high and then taking a

nose dive. However, the highest it's ever been when I checked it was 157 (and

that wasn't fasting).

If my glucose is low, that means my panc is producing more insulin than I

need, right? What could be causing this? I have gained a great appreciation

for those of you who have to live with this every day. I feel like total crap

each time it happens.

Any advice would be appreciated.
