Anyone else having problems keeping their blood sugar level/stable??? I have developed a reactive hypoglycemia and am staying away from most carbs these days except for fruits and vegies.....my doctor says to keep an eye on it but I may have to do some tests..... Anyone else being tested for bone density, too??? Thanks for your input.

I just posted this to vickie. I am going to copy and paste it, because it goes with your post.... Funny you posted that Vickie. On my way home last night I started feeling really cold but burning up. I turned Bright WHITE and didn't even have enough strength to push the gas peddle down without my leg shaking. I didn't think I was going to make it home. I got up the steps, shaking uncontrolably. Brad sat me down and said I was pale as a ghost. He got me some cranberry juice and gave me a tablespoon full of honey. After 5 minutes I began to feel better. The butt of my jeans and the back of my shirt were soaked with sweat. I think my sugar dropped, but I am awfully pale and sleepy as hell. I think my iron is very low. Maybe I need to get my blood checked and soon. Any suggestions on what type of foods to eat to up my iron levels?
