Long story short I've had t2d for many years. I'm single divorced 62 yr old woman. A lot of life changes, but recently I started a high protein diet and have lost 20 lbs. BS much better but now am having horrible panic attacks, nausea, sweating, horrible sense of lonliness and emptiness anyone else have this? Thanks for any responses. LJ
 
Hi LJ

Welcome to the forum,

Well done on the 20lbs. Excellent.

You say you are high protein, I'm reading into that you're low carbing.

Quite a few people mention sweating, dizzyness etc when they first start low carbing - sometimes referred to as Atkins Flu.

Re the panic attacks and lonliness, not heard anyone mention this, although depression is very commonly linked with diabetes.

You mention a lot of life changes, perhaps the changes are more of the issue? You've come to a great place for sharing experiences.
