Alcoholism and Diabetes don't mix after GBS
Hi Gail, I am so sorry to hear of your low blood sugar episodes. I know that during my first sobriety, I was diagnosed with hypoglycemia, and struggled for a few years with some episodes that were scary. Then, during this sobriety, the pendulum swung toward being pre-diabetic when my weight got to its highest point. That was my wake-up call. What I do know is that the pancreas can't handle too much glucose, or alcohol. I thank God for my sobriety, and for my weight loss surgery, because it gives me the opportunity to live a healthy life, and not have to deal with the consequences of my drinking or obesity. Congratulations on finding AA, and getting sober. I am so glad you found recovery, and that you now have hope of stablizing your blood sugar somewhat. Hugs, Trish
