- I do not have diabetes
Hello I'm new to this site.
Thought I'd let you know my experiences and hope someone can tell me if this is 'normal' or not.
I first started getting shakes and energy loss in my teenage years. In my 20s it started again. Everyday at work. I had eec mri, neurologists and gps not find anything wrong. I suggested links to energy, not eating, stress or tiredness never known the issues
Im hypothyroid, low vitD and have dizziness, weakness, shakes, light-headedness, confusion, get hot, irritable and more. I always described it as being drunk or standing up to quick or like watching my diabetic dad have a hypo was how i feel. Lasting 10 minutes to a couple of hours, everyday and Even went for a couple of years. I had it most days on weight watchers. My weight between 10st and 12&1/2. Never had much luck at exercise even on good days, I now have bad knees either knee cap or early osteoarthritis . Gp retests my fasting tests asking if i ate sugar the night before. I get tested alot as my dad is diabetic and because of my symptoms. During my 3 pregnancies i was told i was 4 plus and gestational diabetes and no sugar.
Recently I've been taking blood sugar tests at home. Morning blood sugar between 4.6 and 5.3 my average blood sugar level is 5.3. After meals raising to 8.5-9.7. I start feeling it come on around 4.5
The other day walking around all day took blood sugar before drive home and was 4.2 i ate a bag of sweets and noodles at home. 3 hours later my blood sugar was 3.3 i shoved half a packet of choc biscuits in my face and 7.3.
Yesterday not feeling quite myself woke with 4.6 after breakfast 8.8 4 hours later feel awful 4.4 had sausage potatoes bread and bbq sauce and 10.8.
Today
Waking 5.2 breakfast of coffee with sugar 3 toast with jam home test.
Half hour after 10.1
1 hour after breakfast 10.9
Another half hour 7.9
2 hours after eating 7
3 hours after eating 5.7
4 hours after eating 3.9
5 hours after eating 4.1

Anyone else experience this? Is my blood sugar all over the place or normal?
