Dead Asleep After Sugar Cereal Posted: 01-31-04 19:50pm
I fall dead asleep if I eat one bowl of
cereal (you know, like lucky charms or any
of those real sugary kinds). I even fall
dead asleep if I have fruit w/ natural
sugars. Is this something that could be
related to diabetes? I have gained a
hundred pounds in the last year, too, but
don't know if that is worth mentioning to
my doctor.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

You really have given no information as to
what type of meds you are taking and what
your diet is really like. If you are
diabetic I don,t think you should be
eating sugary cereal, could be after
eating that your sugars sky rocket and you
have that sleepy feeling. How on earth
can your doctor not realize you have
gained 100 pounds in the last year! Why
would you let yourself get that heavy?
Your health should be your number one
concern especially if you have diabetes.
Have you talked with a dietician about
meal plans, please get on some course of
action, get your blood tested first and
see where you stand. Good luck sharon

please go see your dr and if he cant help
you have him to refer you to someone who
can!! Weightgain like you "ve had is not
normal and could very well be caused by
diabetes altho 100 lbs is quite dramatic
even for diabetes
