I'm 26 months post-op and may have experienced my first hypoglycemic

attack. Every time I would read about someone new experiencing this

I would ask myself why that person wasn't being careful of their

daily diet. Please forgive me for thinking that...this thing caught

me completely by surprise!

I've been reading the archives, do I understand correctly that carbs

could trigger this? I thought carbs turn into sugar in your body and

hypo is low blood sugar.? Anyway, I have been in a kind of

depressive mood lately, too many car problems, friend of my son's

died in a car accident, loss of a new boyfriend, etc. About an hour

ago I started feeling very shaky, my arms were extremely weak, I felt

an inner feeling I can't describe. Called a friend who is hypo and

she suggested a few things to eat. I could only find some saltine

crackers and a can of chunk pineapple and that seems to have done the

trick. I also read in the archives of someone having an anxiety

attack and confusing it with hypo.

If I go to my PCP tomorrow or Tuesday, fasting, would they be able to

tell, or is there a certain sugar test just for this?

I have always been the proud one to say I experienced NO health

problems/complications as a result of my WLS, surely not hoping to

start now...
