Hello everyone,
So I got "diagnosed " with pre-diabetes in winter 2014. My then doctor didn't seem to particularly care and didn't offer much help other than " eat slow releasing carbs lol " before kicking me out of the door.
I had a rough few months for a while , then everything has been gradually getting better as I've gotten a better handle on things. I have to take in quite a lot of sugar a day ( mostly through fruit and juice ) to keep myself from getting a crash.
The last 4-5 months have been brilliant, my eating has gotten better and I'm not eating nearly halfway as much as I used to, to maintain my sugar levels, I started regularly exercising again ( which at one point seemed impossible ) and I just overall felt better about myself . However the last Friday I had one hell of a crash at lunch, completely out of no where and thought I was going to collapse. Since then I haven't exactly been back to normal. I keep getting crashes at stupid times ( I had one at 4:30 this morning and one yesterday when I got into uni ) for no reason what so ever and I feel weak all the time.
I haven't felt this bad in two years. Anyone else experience this ? Im at a complete loss of what to do, I'm sort of just waiting for it to mellow out a little and will go to the doctor on Friday if it hasn't calmed down by then.
