Hey,
So..
Where do I start,
I've follow to the best of my knowledge a hypo diet for a month and half, with the addition of Synthroid for a week now, (the lowest dose)
My GTT 3H is 5.2
Which according to some website I saw, is normal, and I was perfectly fine and getting better until 4 days ago.
It started slow, dizzy a bit, until yesterday.
All day, I've been feeling like I'm on a boat on an ocean with a lot of wind, and when my husband and I went for a car ride, it was as if I was at a six flags in the roughest ride there is!
So today, I woke up, took my synthroid, ate breakfast an hour later, ate every 3-4 hours, and it's been 4 hours now that I ate and I'm starting to be dizzy. Not as much as yesterday but if I turn my head left too fast, BAM! Dizzy for a big second.
I just ate 2 spoon of quinoa and I'm already starting to feel better.
But I can't eat every 2 hours, I'm not hungry! I have to force myself.
Is this normal? Is this what I'm suppose to go through?
I'm calling my endo tomorrow to get a prescription for a glucometer, so I can look at my sugar level and take care of it.
Also, once I buy that glucometer, what number should I look for?
What number should I aim for, and what number means it's too low?
I know nothing about that :/
Thanks
