hot flash

The other day I was sitting in my car talking to my husband watching my son play football. It was chilly out so i put on a sweat shirt.. then all of a sudden i got extremely hot....my face started sweating and my head... I took off my sweat shirt and shoes..and laid down...I hadn't eaten anything in a couple hours so i don't think it was that... I AM 34.. So what do you all think this was??? You think I had low sugar or what??????

Anything is possible. I know my "hot flashes" are " the change". I am 52 but have heard that you can go thru this up to a few years before you actually change. Could have been anything. You may want to ask your doctor next time you see him. Good Luck, sorry I couldn't help you. Sandy

I hope that's not happening, cuz i think i am too darn young....lol but i will ask my doctor.

Heidi, it does sound like dumping, but I don't know how long it takes to dump (I never have). Did you feel sicky?? love donna

I didn't feel sick like in my tummy or anything... I was just setting there.......although I did get very hungry right after that.

Yers you hit it on th nose. Your sugar was low. That happens to me is i do not eat. !!!!! Keep something on you at all times to eat. Your body lets you know when your needing something Hugs]barb

Also on my losing weight day I sweat all day and feel sluggish. Might be losing

Well i did get very hungry after that happened, I told my husband, i need something to eat...then i went home and ate something and felt better.. so maybe thats what it was.

Sounds like you had a low blood sugar attack to the fullest. Hypoglycemia. Happens when you've not had enough sugar and your levels go too low. Next time, keep a hard candy nearby and that should help you. Sometimes a protein bar would help, too. I hate that feeling. I had it once during grocery shopping. I was zipping through the store and it hit me all of a sudden. I felt weak and shaky and sweaty. Just awful! But, it did pass. paula
