[QUOTE="sorchao, post: 2120519, member: 512341"] Thanks for your reply jjraak, it’s very reassuring to know that I’m not the only one in a position like this. And yes, I totally agree that everyone’s journey is different, and we all have bodies that react differently. I’ve finally been in to see my endocrinologist and he reckons that this is indeed my brain’s reaction to ‘low’ blood sugar, after marinating in sugar for some time (my words, not his!) He’s happy for me to keep running at my current level for a few more months, treating the lows, and see if my brain manages to readjust itself to the new sugar levels, as I don’t have any adrenal symptoms, just the wobbly, floaty perception stuff. He says that this is an issue with a very small % of people, when you drop BS too quickly over a short period of time (I went from fasting 12-15s to 8s in 2 weeks), and that you have to give your brain chemistry time to adjust. He did also ask about blood pressure, but seemed happy enough that mine has always been a little on the low side. Fingers crossed that my brain chemistry manages to catch up soon... [/QUOTE]
