Gastric bypass hypoglycemia
Horribly slow. I sent you a note. Pop by the menu thread on the RNY board. It's the only thing that gets regular activity.

Oh my goodness, Jenlmaz! I just got on this site after being away for several years and your post jumped out at me. I had gastric bypass surgery 8 years ago and lately I've been having all kinds of problems with hypoglycemia even if I eat plenty of protein with the carbs. Thank you for posting this!

Your condition is the basis for life to change after gastric surgery. Regulating blood glucose levels plays a key role in overall health, and postprandial hypoglycemia is a serious complication. Your efforts to bring attention to the problem, especially in the case of ten types of insurance, are necessary to maintain health and wellness.
Had revision from vsg to bypass almost 3 years ago for GERD and am experiencing reactive hypoglycemia and rapid gastric emptying no matter what I eat. It's led to regain from 143 to 163 since my revision. Even after a meal of dense protein like chicken my pouch is empty super quick, my blood sugar plummets to below 50 and I need to eat again. My insurance approved Wegovy with BMI 27.5 because of this so hopefully it helps. I expected issues if I ate simple carbs or sugar but it's everything and I never feel full even if my blood sugar doesn't drop.
