[QUOTE="sally and james, post: 1402749, member: 93504"] [USER=310285]@welsheagle[/USER] A few thoughts: You've only been doing very low carb for five days - your body is having to learn to deal with some big changes, so perhaps it isn't too strange that you have felt a bit odd today. It's nearly four years since I went low carb and I do recall the odd funny sensation. You won't go hypo without insulin or insulin inducing medication, so you don't need to fear falling into a coma, your own body will produce the necessary glucose to prevent this. A blood sugar level of 3.8 is not that unusual pre-dinner/end of the working day. It's the time when many people's levels are lowest. Perhaps you are starting to get lower sugar levels than your body is used to. Once you get used to lower levels, you won't notice them, they will be the new normal. Dizziness can be caused by things other than diabetes/low sugar levels. My advice: keep going, keep recording your sugar levels, keep notes or a diary. That way you will work out if it is just a period of change or if you have something odd going on. Hope this is of some help, Sally [/QUOTE]
