I Have A Question. Would A Big Drop In Blood Sugar Make You Super Tired?
It was 280 at lunch then I just took it and it was 89
Sure can - you have literally run out of "gas"
It is exactly the same as when a marathon runner "hits the wall" if you are familiar with the term where they just have zero energy left - that is caused by severed drop in blood sugar
when mine does a fast drop,it surely makes me tired to.i start to shake and my body becomes hot/with sweat.
@A DiabetesTeam Member that's exactly what is supposed to happen
High Blood Sugar will make you sleepy - even in non-diabetics that's what tends to cause people to doze off after eating lunch or a huge meal (Christmas Dinner)
Low Blood Sugar is deadly so the Brain actually monitors blood sugar levels all the time and if it gets too low the pituitary gland causes the release of a few "panic" hormones
So yes, nervous, shaky, sweaty (and if sleeping it can be those drenching cold sweats) and an adrenaline "dump" that gets you practically vibrating all in an effort to get the Liver to release some stored sugar to correct the low (naturally)
It sounds like "your system" is working exactly as it should - just have to work on the high blood sugars because while they are great "sleeping pills" they are doing a number on our vascular systems
Yes it does mine.
Yep I sleep better with higher bs- can't settle when it's dropping.
Good Day, It Came To My Senses That I Stay Hungry, I Want To Know Wether You Guy's Have A Snack Recipe That Is A Low Or Free Carb To Eat?
