Why do I always feel sick, tired and run down?

[Guest guest]

What supplements are you taking? How much protein? In what form? I was

having a problem with the dizziness and have since added Propel SF sports

drink to my daily regimen (2-4 a day depending on the day) and that has

resolved the dizzy problem.

I am late responding to this because MSN was dumping all of the list digests

into my junk mail folder. I hopefully have that fixed now.

Well I don't know why you are having this problem. But I also still have

days where I feel very tired and run down. All of my blood work has come

back excellent. The surgeon has run various tests and can find nothing

wrong. I have occasional bouts of diarrhea and dizziness but not often. I

get my protein and my fluids religiously. The only thing that has really

helped was the doctor suggesting that it was time to start taking in a few

more carbs and having me get to 30 grams of carbs per day and to check my

blood sugar and make sure it is not low when the " episodes " occur. Do you

have a way to check your blood sugar? Mine are usually not very low when it

happens but are on the low side of normal. Both my Surgeon and my doc have

said that it may be my body responding to having normal blood glucose levels

after so many years of having outrageously high levels.

also tired of feeling run down. I have been having alot of stomach aches and

severe dizziness...the doctors can't seem to figure out what is going on.

Has anyone else had similar problems?
