Default Re: What were your symptoms?

Sounds to me like you're experiencing hypo-glycemia (low blood sugar) Carole is right, some lab work will show for sure what's going on with your glucose levels. See if there is a free clinic in your area such as a county health department. They can do the testing for you. That's the first place I found out that I was Hypo-glycemic when I was 24. At 33, I was pregnant and got diagnosed with gestational diabetes. It went away after her birth. When I turned 40, I was diagnosed with type-2 diabetes. At 42 I began Atkins and it reversed my diabetes in 47 days and have been able to manage it with Atkins alone. I'll be turning 48 in July.
I can say this, Atkins is the best woe for Hypo-glycemics and Diabetics. So if it is Diabetes, there is hope for you. When you get to the nut rung, they will help you keep your glucose levels stable without dips or spikes. Nice and steady.
