Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Hi, My name is . I had RNY in June 2002 and lost 120 lbs. I am currently 17 weeks pregnant and so far have not gained any weight. I am having problems with severe hypoglycemia and the doctors seem to think that my surgery is the culprit. I was hypoglycemic since teenage years, but nowhere near this bad. I've read about alimentary hypoglycemia and I read the q & a at AMOS website, but I don't understand why this hasn't been a problem until I became pregnant and if it's likely to continue after pregnancy. Will I be able to breastfeed? My sugars are currently bouncing between 250 high and my lowest documented of 32 during a seizure. Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated. I'm currently on a high protein, low carb, no simple carb diet. The scary thing is I've developed " hypoglycemia unawareness " which means that I don't experience any warning signs, my sugar can be as low as the thirties before I know that anything is wrong.
