low blood sugar symptoms toddler

The description you give is not suggestive at all of diabetes, the first episode of low sugar with intussception is expected, during sepsis (high white count) and illness in a small 2 yo child who has not eaten it is not unexpected to find a low sugar, the insulin is normal, NOT too low, this insulin level in the face of a sugar of 85 is appropriate and rules out hyperinsulinemia(a cause of low sugar) and makes us feel better in regards to the low sugar that occured earlier.

Has anyone dealt with low blood sugar during pregnancy? I took my 1 hr glucose test- I had black coffee prior to the drinking the glucose drink, then 1 hr of nothing and my blood draw. My level came back at 65. My midwiNenmade a passing comment about it bein low and watching for symptoms of lightheadedness but wasn't concerned. What were your numbers if you were deemed low blood sugar? Any other symptoms? Thanks!

This doesn't make sense. If you have low blood sugar, you are a diabetic - hypoglycemic. Did you ask your doctor why he/she feels you have low glucose when your tests say otherwise? For a doctor to come to such a conclusion there must be something going on that's not being disclosed . Call him/her if for clarification.

Try a coke, or anything sugary that can get into your system fast. When I was 22 weeks I had my blood pressure bottom out, which had very similar symptoms to low sugar. My dr said that the low bp was normal as long as it wasn't all the time, because baby could of been on a vein or something. When it happened I drank a soda, and sat down with my head as far between my knees as I could get it(belly was in the way lol). I'd bring it up to your dr at your next appt though!

I've had Type 1 Diabetes since I was 8 years old (am now a 29 year old Mom with no complications). His Fasting blood sugar is too low. A "normal" blood sugar (what we strive to reach) is between 80-120. For a Diabetic it's very difficult to stay within this range, so it is extremely important to test often (I test 10 times a day just to be sure). I also now wear an Insulin pump by Minimed (have had it for 5 years and would never go back).

So I took him to the doctor and we were told that those symtoms were due to high blood sugar. At this point in time his blood sugar level was at 600, after receiving an IV of saline it went down to 300 (which is not great, but better). The next morning we took him to specialist, and he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.

If your blood glucose was 61 an hour or two after breakfast, especially if your breakfast was fairly high carb (such as cereal, bread, etc) you might have a specific type of hypoglycemia called reactive hypoglycemia which is people who have low blood sugar after a meal high in carbs. I would suggest seeing your doctor and getting tested to see what type of hypoglycemia you have and to make sure you aren't pre-diabetes.

21 weeks. Yes I did and that's the symptoms it said to eat with lots of sugar. Well no junk food in my house but I'm eating some yogurt. Hopefully this will do something.

Hypoglycemia/ low blood sugar would be considered blood sugar levels less than about 70. Your result of 103 is normal, not hypoglycemia. It is likely that your symptoms may be from other causes. Sometimes headaches can be a sign of not drinking enough - so a glass of water and a few minutes to relax / be quiet - may help a lot. Hope this helps.

In both cases, cells and organs and the brain are starved for sugar. So the body sends out the same symptoms, calling for the sugar it needs. Makes sense, doesn't it?

told me to watch my blood sugar because im having symptoms of hypo. I notice my blood sugar at night between 2-3 am are over 120 and my fasting blood sugar in the morning is over 100. When i get the fealing of low it is around 80 and it will keep dropping. the last time it went to 67 and i had to eat some thing i couldnt wait. i had a cup of oj and checked in 15 min and it went to 137.

ll be thinking of you tomorrow, and most definately mention the low blood sugar to your dr. I would suggest you keep some orange juice also in the frig, but at low 50's is very low. If your feeling funny I had to give my dad a 1/2 spoon of sugar to get it back up quick. I also have learned if you over exercise this could cause your sugar to drop. Let us know about your appt. Wish you the best.

Actually with low blood sugar the best thing is an increase in protien. I keep a block of cheese on hand and if mine starts to drop then I slice off a piece and lay down with some water a few mins and it clears up. I have dealt with low blood sugar in all 3 pregnancies now but was not diabetic...oh and my dr suggested powerade or Gatorade to help keep then stable.

I had the same problem I was almost passing out at work several times during a shift, I went to the doctor and they said it was low blood pressure and low sugar, they told me to eat lots of protein and drink lots of juice and water, no more soda, I did this and it helped 100% I have only had one more episode since and I hadn't eaten correctly all day

I'm 6 1/2 weeks & my blood sugar has been dropping really low also. Try eating smaller meals more often. That has been helping me.

I've always had problems with this even before pregnancy and I think it's my blood sugar. I try to always keep peanut butter crackers or a protein bar in my purse for when I start to feel bad and it seems to work!

My Father 77 yo and already have diabetic since 25 years ago but now he get low blood sugar (50 - 70) after he take oral medicine for deabetic. He get receipt from cardiologist monthly because he have chf also. What i/he have to do?

Anyone else have very low blood sugar? What do you do to keep your sugar levels up? Eating more fruit isn't working for me and I hate sugary drinks...

Did any of you ladies get realy low blood sugar to the point you passed out? Im 10+2 weeks and terrified its hurting my little bean ... :( ...

Any of you ladies experiance low blood sugar while pregnant just curious

My mom and both grandmothers have/had diabetes but they also were overweight, had big bellies and ate horribly, smoked and never exercised. I have low blood pressure sometimes too...never had high blood pressure. I would think diabetes would be highly unlikely.....???

I have not heard about MS and low blood sugar being related. I do know that there are many people that have MS and diabetes. Still the doctor's say they are not related. I still have the gut feeling that they are related. Please make sure that your doctor is aware of these times of low blood sugar. You don't want to take any chances with your health.
