[QUOTE="mahorela, post: 1031130, member: 252561"] I definitely do get hypo symptoms, more in line with reactive hypoglycemia and I have ever since I was a kid. If I wasn't eating well and was out playing basketball all day I would get hypo symptoms, which at the time I just assumed was because I was hungry, I'd go and eat something sweet and I'd feel better. I was always a skinny kid, sporty but was never any good at endurance sports. Things worsened in my mid 20's, I started to get neuropathy in my feet and muscular fatigue set in but in an unusual kind of way where I still had good athleticism and strength but it would rapidly dissapear. I'm in my mid 30's now and I'm still pretty athletic, I can still dunk a basketball with ease but I almost never get dunks in games because by the time I sprint the length of the court I haven't got the strength. After weight sessions or heavy cardio sessions people are regularly noticing that I am very pale with dark circles under my eyes. My laymans interpretation is that I may have some problem with glycogen storage, it's all very new to me though and I'm still trying to get my head around it. I am working at getting back into ketosis but I should eat something starchy and do some more testing as you advised to see if I can catch a spike. Any ideas on what I should eat? thanks again NoCrbs4me. [/QUOTE]
