I have experienced this twice. Both times it occures after eating cereal with milk. My nut suggests keeping something sweet like candy nearby and follow it with protein a short while later. I had a really bad hypoglycemia episode about two weeks ago. Do you have this?

Hi Mary Mother,
Thank you so much for your response.
This is definitely a possibility. I am seeing the doctor tomorrow, and I want to have as much information available as possible.
I have been having severe headaches, excessive night sweats and many of the other symtoms they list.

Your beliefs are never neutral. They either move you forward or hold you back. You chose what you believe.
Do you have a glucometer? I plan to test my blood sugar the next time it happens to me. Mine ONLY happens after certain food combinations or "fasting"....BUT I think part of mine is linked to drinking caff. coffee in the morning 1st thing.
I can pinpoint mine to eating a bowl of cereal--high fiber cereal/2% milk. and Oatmeal--made with OR without milk. I was thinking it was related to lactose but doesn't seem to be the case.
I have also had my morning coffee and skipped bfast and within a few hours get shakey/fuzzy. BUT the symptoms are not as strong as when I have had a high fiber/low sugar meal.
IF I eat "bad" bfast foods I don't notice a reaction.
I am actually experimenting today--with STEEL CUT OATS (no milk) added some sliced raw almonds, candied walnuts and craisin cranberries (1/2 cup oats). Had coffee around 8am and bfast 8:45. I normally have my morning coffee with splenda, fat free 1/2 and 1/2 and 2 HEAPING spoonfuls of benefiber. Seems to be the ONLY thing that keeps me from being constipated. BUT lately things have been messed up.
I had RNY 6 yrs ago (Dec 03).
My surgeon's PA is at a loss and my local internist suggested a pancreatic insulinoma. BUT it sounds like it must be a post surgery thing. I am trying to lower my cholesterol by eating a healthier bfast but that seems to be BACK FIRING!!! Fried egg, livermush and whole wheat bread--NO reaction. Cereal or oatmeal==CRASH!
IF I crash while I am out and about the easiest way for me to get rid of the shakes is an egg mcmuffin or small mcd cheeseburger. Has to have protein in it.
