Blood sugars and having a row

Re: Blood sugars ansd having a row

Fluctuations in blood sugar levels can be associated with changes in mood. However, this typically occurs only with extremely high or low blood sugar levels.

So. The thing is pink, which came first ?? The elevated Bg or the argument.

Hi pink.

I know if I get agitated my Bg climbs as well. So it may be that.
Might still be worth checking an hour after your brekkie another day just to check the effect on your Bg level. Worth knowing.

Re: Blood sugars ansd having a row

I used to rent a room from people who argued constantly with each other. By the time objects were flying, as well as the tears and screams, my normally 5 - 6 blood sugar could go up to 12 or 14. And a horrible upset stomach and headache to go with them.

I know it was that, cos days they were out, I was fine. Also haven't had any of those episodes since I moved out of there. But I'd always get that sick feeling when they started and the BS would go up like clockwork.

Hiya
Ive noticed an increase in BG following an argument or very stressful situation.
Would I be right in thinking that it is to do with increased adrenalin levels. An argument prepares our bodies for a fight both emotionally and physically and therefore the adrenalin levels rise, it is not usual for us to physically fight following an argument so the adrenalin just sits there for a while before it subsides.

love and peace
