1619005 tn?1298864860 Have had some serious health issues that have escalated over the past year - have stabilized blood sugar with diet to control serious hypoglycemia (diet from an endocrinologist); controlling some sports-related osteoarthritis/compressed disks in my spine with Motrin regularly and cyclobenazprine rarely, as needed; regularly receive chiropractic work; I am also in the process of being treated for endometriosis with Lupron (has been working wonderfully, alleviated a lot of pain so far) and still,
956433 tn?1255977108 good eating habbits are key in treating BOTH anxiety and hypoglycemia separately...that's no different if you have them both together. while there are many routes in treating anxiety...all of those routes are aided by good diet. i've yet to hear of one thats aided by a poor diet, but i suppose all is possible...though certainly not probable. obviously the frontline treatment of hypoglycemia is good diet. with this in mind, it's reasonable to assume good diet can only benefit you.
Avatar f tn I am a concerned about my weight gain. I think I may have slowed down a little when I found out I was pregnant I weighed 108lbs at 7weeks now I'm 23weeks I weigh 124lbs. Last night I had to go to the er because my sugar dropped to 63 and they diagnosed it as hypoglycemia...
2088051 tn?1334542007 So I Was Diagnosed With Hypoglycemia When I Was 15.. I'm 18 Now. It Seems Like It's Gotten Worse As I've Gotten Older. I'll Eat.. Then Not Even An Hour Later, I'll Start Shaking. This Stuff Is Horrible. I Just Need To Know If It's Because I'm Not Eating Enough Or It's Because Of The Food I Eat. Help!
Avatar m tn ve cut down entirely on exercise and lifting. I used to run for more than an hour a day and another lifting and was on a very healthy diet so any muscles will stand out better. I've had sciatica for about 1 year, and had two relapses. For the past 3 months, I've done very little exercising, mostly been sedantic. I'm sure I have hypoglycemia. I feel dizzy sometimes if my blood sugar is too low, but once I eat some sugar, I'm good as normal.
Avatar n tn I am a 41 year old female that has hypothyroidism and hypoglycemia and am trying to lose some weight, about 10 to 15 pounds. I take meds for my thyroid, watch what I eat and exercise 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hrs a day 5 times a week. I've tried following a low blood sugar diet and was able to lose about 4-5 lbs the first week, but for the next 5 weeks I lost nothing. This last week I went off the diet slightly and gained 2-3 lbs. back. Am I eating the wrong things?
Avatar m tn I'm a 31 year old Hispanic male. Current weight 232lbs, (height = 6'1) with most of it concentrated around my waist. Still, this is also the lowest I've been since I was 13. About a year ago I had a GTT done which revealed me to be a flat-line hypoglycemic. (Fasting = 79, 1/2hr = 81, 1hr = 71, 2hr =79) I have a very strong family history of diabetes and am working to prevent it in myself At least, that's what I hope.
1353650 tn?1429463374 t want to give me any more medication due to fear of side effects and expects this problem to go away with time, loss of weight, diet and exercise. The discomfort I feel so far is mild. If it gets any worse I am going to ask for more metformin. Maybe to take just 2 weeks before my cycle. My low blood sugar at this time is very difficult to control even while being on a low glycemic diet.
Avatar n tn Recently I started passing out and my doctor ordered a 5 hour fasting. About hour 3 I crashed to a blood sugar level of about 37. I have met with a nutritionist and I am trying to adhere to this diet. However, it isn't making me feel any better. My head is very cloudy and I have difficulty concentrating. My head hurts constently and I can't sleep well at night. My eyes burn and sometimes I just feel like I am zoned out.
Avatar f tn But, the continuing effort is based on diet, exercise, weight control. Personally, I am not yet convinced that successfully getting rid of HCV means that insulin resistence , high blood sugar and diabetes type 2 go away. Diabetes type 2, I believe, will be an ongoing issue beyond HCV with possibly even more insidious ramifications than HCV. Good luck.
Avatar n tn You can use the support if you’re really going to do heavy weight lifting, otherwise it’s not required. Of course, you need to pay attention to your diet too. Avoid colas/fast foods as far as possible. I sincerely hope that helps.
1348086 tn?1370783185 I get that sometimes too. I have hypoglycemia that comes and goes but eating a healthier diet keeps it at bay. I do not have diabetes but it runs in my family so I keep an eye on it. I have more of a "reactive" hypoglycemia which means when I eat or drink something too loaded with sugar or empty carbs, it will make me crash within an hour or so. Then I have to grap something to stabalize it again.
1066531 tn?1254969334 I’ve been working out for many years now, and i want to know how I can tone my body better without losing a large portion of weight, mostly my chest and midsection? I’m 6ft 198lbs I would like to be around 195 but in much better “shape”. My diet ***** and i’m trying to work on it, but I work out at the gym 2-3 times a week lifting weights and running. I dont run a whole bunch though, would that help my problem or will that just make me lose wieght?
Avatar f tn Fasting sugar was 80 and fasting insulin was always 6-9. He diagnosed adrenal fatigue and reactive hypoglycemia due to poor diet. My problems improved with diet overhaul and life went on. A few years later, I suddenly began losing weight rapidly without cause. I got down to 110 pounds, and I am a very tall woman. My BMI was under 18. I was put through another battery of the same tests, and everything was normal except the blood sugar dropping to the 70's after meals.
Avatar m tn I'm not a DR but it sounds like hypoglycemia or diabetes - if it's hypoglycemia - it could be caused by diabetes or a range of other conditions. Being that this is combined with weight - he should absolutely see a doctor - perhaps a long time ago.
Avatar n tn Also to bulk up you want to totally exhaust the muscle. Lift as much weight as you can (ALWAYS tighten your abs when lifting and engage your pelvic floor -the muscles you use to stop the peeing- to protect your low back). You can do fewer reps, but with more weight and stop only when you can't take anymore. Rest about 30 sec and do a few more-- even just 2 at maximum weight. Rest than do even just one more. By now (if you are using enough weight) your muscle should be screaming.
Avatar n tn My doctor thinks its nothing serious and my body is reacting to all the changes I have made to my diet and my weight loss etc. He says the symptoms are typical in people with insulin resistance and will go away with time. However, a specialist I saw seems to think it could be hyperinsulinism or reactive hypoglyecmia. I wonder if anyone has had a similar experience and could help me understand what I am going through.
Avatar n tn Ask him/her to get an accurate weight and discuss if/how you should address your diet. We can all have some body distortion issues, so going by how your clothes feel might be off, even by a lot! Do you just get the numbness/tingling when you exercise? If you put lots of pressure on your feet (like what would happen using a stair climber, for instance) that could be the source.
764218 tn?1234569759 I'm 20 year old girl, weigh 132 pounds, and i'm 5'6. I exercise (cardio and lifting light weights) about 2-4 times a week, depending on my schedule. I want to weigh 125 pounds and have been thinking about taking diet pills to help because I can't seem to lose more weight. Is it a safe idea? I've heard rumors of girls my age taking diet pills, and later on in life are overweight and can't lose the weight because they ruined their metabolism. Is this true?
979153 tn?1248369163 Last year in September my Daughter jumped three clothes sizes very suddenly with no change in her diet. We had her checked for thyroid and diabetes but the blood tests can back negative. Now she is hungry all the time and her hair is very dry no matter how much I condition it, I have recently noticed that she shakes in the morning when she wakes up and gets better after she eats. Please let me know what this could mean.
1339808 tn?1276321180 you should do more cardio than weight lifting,some people get confused because they are working out but not losing weight but in your case you are lifting weights also which is adding muscle weight to you,if you want to really lose you will have to increase the cardio and lower the weight your lifting and do more reps
Avatar f tn Try adding protein and weight bearing exercises to your daily routine. Protein is used to build muscle. You gain stronger and bigger muscles by lifting weights.
