Hi,
New here. Nice to find a forum about reactive hypoglycemia !
So in summary : For me eating = getting tired for hours, even sleepy. So I went to see GP.
I was asked to take one of these glucose/insulin test (Where I need to drink some sugary drink and then they take my blood every 30 minutes for 2 hours).
GP says that I have reactive hypoglycemia and that by changing diet, I should be lots better. Of course its true that If I only eat salads, and very light - well, I dont tire, I am just nervous (as I am not really eating !) or taking metabet SR (metformin i think).
As I believe a few of you passed the same test, maybe you can check the information given here and let me know if the doctor is right ?
Given the fact that I am 68Kg.
BG (in mmol/l) :
fasting : 4.3
0.5 hr : 8.0
1 hr : 6.6
1.5 hr : 5.4
2 hr : 4.9
Insulin (in mIU/L) :
fasting : 4.4
0.5 hr : 101
1 hr : 84.6
1.5 hr : 52.6
2 hr : 32.3
Let me know if this rings a bell, and if this indeed support the diagnosis of reactive hypoglycemia ?
Thanks
