Guest guest Posted July 2, 2003 Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 Color me stupid here but I need to re-visit a thread that I am not sure I completely understood. Someone said that if you have a glucose spike (with sweating, nausea, etc.) you can eat a little bit of peanut butter and it will help you feel better. Do you guys mean that a glucose spike is the same as dumping and if so, you can use peanut butter to feel better? I dump on just about everything, milk, grease, sugar, carbs, etc. which is a good thing. I have finally reached the point where I avoid most of the stuff that I know will get me but every once in a while something catches me off guard. It would be nice to know that a spot of peanut butter might help me get over one of these spells. Can you all confirm if that is correct? Sorry to be dense but wanted to make sure I understood this correctly. Thanks. R in Nashville Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 17 months post op and I find that I am more sensitive now than I was earlier. I don't think it is my imagination. Any one else?

However, I am also finding that some things that I tolerated early on dont sit as well now.. I am also learning to eat a bit differently as I have been fighting the hypoglycemia reactions for the past few months.. I now keep some peanut butter and crackers on me at all times for these episodes.

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 Nope, it isn't the glucose spike, it is when your glucose gets really low. Now this can happen because you haven't eaten for a long time and occasionally after the glucose spike your sugar level can drop really low. When your glucose (sugar) level gets really low, peanut butter generally helps. For me, so does cheese. Lori Owen - Denton, Texas SRVG 7/16/01 Dr. Ritter/Dr. Bryce 479/335/???
