Waking up at 4:30am due to low blood sugar is noooooooo funnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

Obviously this is the only place I can bitch about it because it's FUCKING EARLY.

Serious question, what does that feel like?

Serious question, what does that feel like?

Hypoglycaemia?

Varies greatly from person to person unfortunately, with me it's generally a distinct feeling of something not being right, usually my hands shake, and I often start sweating.

Serious question, what does that feel like?

Waking up from Hypoglycemia means I'm pretty "low blood sugar"

I can't say if I feel like this all the time, but at the same time I realised instantly what was wrong, so maybe I do always get like this.

Heavy breathing (possibly Shallow as well?) + cold shakes + light headed + lack of energy.

The generic feeling I get when I'm low blood sugar is often hard to explain. A general hollow feeling? It feels like there is something missing from the bones in my entire body. Something central, as if someone has drilled right down each bone and left a hollow cavity through them.

This will last up until I get some food / sugar + 10 minutes time, or if I don't get any sugar, ya know, till I die lol

uwaa~~ Are you a diabetic too?

[Lias]

uwaa~~ Are you a diabetic too?

Nah but my baby mama is type 1, and she started testing my blood when I had these "attacks" and I was low as every time (like 2's and 3's). Asked the docs and they dunno why, possibly pre type 2 diabetic they said but my (insert name of long term blood sugar level test) keeps coming back fine. If I eat big carb heavy meals, go 5-6 hours without eating, or don't eat before exercise it's much more likely I'll go hypo so I just try and avoid those things and it seems to be under control.

i know the feeling, i am not diabetic , but suffer from low blood sugar over night meaning i shake and feel like ass in the morning till i get a piece of fruit or something with an energy kick, tea and coffee with sugar works but i have to follow it with food or i crash..  and then if i have too much sugar then i feel the same way but feel heavy and cant stay awake...

story of my life balancing my diet along with Chrohns...

[Craigor]

Diet is interesting, I have noticed massive changes since tinkering with my own diet over the last year.. I was interested to know what low blood sugar felt like for you guys because that's something I'm still trying to balance out, thanks though, that's helped a lot.

You honestly did just explain going from hypo to hyper-glycemia ... How long has this been going on for?

Do your taste buds go all funny when you've had a lot of sugar?

all my life.

yes on occasion they do its why i have brown sugar now instead of white and for a long time smoking hid my tastebuds going funny, but i quite when my 8 month old was born, but i get tested every 6 months with a full fasting test i just have an incredibly fast metabolism so i can go from over to under and back withing an hour of eating..  one of the reasons i struggle to gain weight, ask LIAS i ate more than him regularly and still weigh less that one of his turds.

Verified.

[Kayne]

Crazy crazy.

Did you lose weight when you were smoking / gain weight when you quit?

I've dropped from 65 to 55kgs and can't put a single bit of it back on.

[Craigor]

I had / have huge issues putting weight on, a big part of the reason why I started going to the gym was to gain weight

[Xsannz]

nope never been able to gain weight even when i quit, i have been between 59-63kg since i was 17.

i was heaviest when i shattered my ankle on the bike and got to 65 but that was probably the morphine and codeine causing retention.

currently sitting at around 62kg.

and DANM YOU..

got told yesterday when i went for my fasting test again that its my metabolism that i need to eat fruit before bed to help with morning as the fasting test shows i get Hypoglycemic and need to cut down out having 10 cups of tea with sugar a day, as thats causign me to feel shit and almost struggle to stay awake in the afternoon because i am pushing hyperglycemic..

danm, you Kayne i blame you i caught it on these forums.

[Craigor]

10 cups of tea with sugar, that's a significant amount

I have two cups of coffee a day, but the only other thing I drink is water, and orange juice after exercise.

[Xsannz]

not 10 everyday but at least 4 - 5 per day
