Hi,
I was going for an operation but ended up in ICU with anaphylaxis reaction to the drugs.
Since then I have been incredibly fatigued and find it hard to regulate emotions etc.
I practice mindfulness and started to notice sugar highs and lows.
I have been technically diabetic for a few years but ate what I thought was reasonable diet as veggie, lactose and gluten free.
Since my ICU visit though my body has definitely changed e.g oily face rather than normal etc
I trialled a free libre monitor and have been quite shocked at how high my levels seem to often be and so now on a massive diet overhaul re carbs and eating some fish and meat again that have no carbs.
Wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences in changes after extreme anaphylaxis?
Thankyou, elly
