Dizziness, Shakes, Food Doesn't Help Posted: 12-13-07 11:44am
I have had what seemed to be a low level
hypoglycemia for over 12 years. I passed
out the first once at that time, but since
then I have controlled the shakes and
dizziness by eating food when the first
symptoms come on. Last week I was working
out and got kind of a big 'crash' two days
in a row. I didn't pass out, but since
that time I haven't been able to get rid
of the shakes and dizziness no matter what
or how much I eat. It seems that my blood
sugar won't stabalize. Any ideas? Thank
You.

the same thing happens to me with
exercise. one time i was doing yoga in a
heated room and could feel myself losing
my grip. i got super irritable and
couldn't focus. i finally put 2 and 2
together and left the room, went home, and
got something to eat. but i was shaky for
a day or two. i think when you crash with
the combination of exercise, it takes
longer to level out.
the only thing i've realized is that it's
all about the daily maintenance of diet.
the more you stick to the low carb diet,
the better your chances of recovering from
a crash quickly. i no longer eat any fast
acting carbs whatsover and also caffeine
is a big one for me to stay away from.
also, be sure you eat a meal or snack when
you crash like nuts with cheese or
something like that, not juice or sugar.
