[QUOTE="Artemis23, post: 2361738, member: 537468"] I'm commenting because I seem to have this too. The stories here mimic my own uncannily. Putting my own out there for anyone else combing the internet for this issue... there isn't much otherwise! But thoughts/feedback are also appreciated. I've had this since my teens. All the typical hypoglycemic symptoms after eating, especially after high sugar foods, but not after fasting. Tremors, weak, fatigue, irritable, foggy, sweating, chills, pale, etc etc. Eating a snack fixes the symptoms. I also find I feel really tired even after all the other symptoms subside. Like my body is exhausted from going haywire. First doc I talked to put me on antidepressants, which changed nothing but did make me motion sick. Second doc shrugged and told me that "that's common in young thin women." Third (this month) told me that I'm just getting it from breastfeeding and my vegan diet. That on its face makes no sense, because I've had this since I was a teen, which was about a decade before going veg and two decades before having kids. Like others here, I have naturally low blood pressure. 100/60 I do have mild hypothyroidism, but it has been under good control for a decade now. I do not have depression or anxiety or any other mental illness. I do get moody about the things I don't get done or can't accomplish when I get symptoms. I've personally found that keto is unnecessary. But I do need balanced meals with complex carbs, protein, and fat and I need to eat every 3 or 4 hours. For example, I can do well with a PB on whole wheat toast in the morning, but cereal is a no-go. Even "high protein" advertised cereals don't work. I can skip breakfast and be fine. I did some intermittent fasting, and that was fine too. Again, I'm putting this out there so any other poor sufferers can see they aren't alone even if the docs won't recognize it. I don't have any answers I'm afraid. [/QUOTE]
