    Alcohol induced reactive hypoglycemia???

    I think this might have been a series of panic attacks may be coupled with some level of insulin resistance. I behaved like a hypocondriac and when I realized that I began to feel just fine. Will follow up on tests, make healthy lifestyle changes but I think the bottomline of my story is: DO...

    Alcohol induced reactive hypoglycemia???
