I've been feeling like CRAP the last week or so...tired, weak, dizzy...i had an episode on Sunday where I almost passed out...actually had to sit on the floor as i thought i was going to go down!  I'm eating well...consume about 900-1100 calories a day.  I went to see my PCP on Monday and had lab work done.  My thyroid levels were way off!  That accounts for alot of how i have been feeling.  But my blood sugar was 48!  So low, and that was at 11am...after i had ate.  Has anyone had this problem, and what have you done to help with it.  I think i am eating right...i plan on doing some research, and asking my Nutritionist as well...but just looking for some feedback if any of you have dealt with this. 

Thanks :)

Hi Kris,

I haven't dealt with low blood sugar, but I was on high blood pressure meds that had the same effect on me.  Once I went off of them, I felt a lot better. 

Hope things level off for you - did your PCP offer an advice to you on how to fix this?

She suggested adding more carbs to my diet...which i'm nervous to do...but i am going to try it.  I think it will just make it more difficult to get in my protien, but i also think i need to try to eat more frequently...sometimes i'm busy and don't eat as often as i should.
