Whether you are on medication or not this will happen. The difference is medication was helping control the effects, whereas now you are using diet ie not having the carbs in the first place.  Are you seeing an trend of generally lower numbers since the initial high ones when you first stopped the medication? Are they improving again yet? I think you are saying it is extreme tiredness as opposed to a sudden loss of consciousness. Ie consistent with high blood sugars.  It doesn’t sound like the cheese was the cause of the episode though as you already felt off when you ate it.Keto typically brings down blood pressure, with many needing to reduce or even stop medication for it. Have you checked you bp since going keto or during these episodes?some digestive issues do take a little while for the body to adjust. If you are certain electrolytes and water is sufficient (I’d try adding even more water temporarily to see if that helps or a magnesium supplement as many here swear by) then I’d see how I felt in a week or so in this regard.and finally if many of the symptoms were occurring before you started keto it seems unlikely diet is the cause.  I’m sorry you went through cancer and radiation.  Could it be lasting side effects from this?  I don’t know much about such treatments.</blockquote>
