Glucose numbers low?

Question

My glucose came back 54 which apparently is hypoglycemic? Anyone else? I see my doc tomorrow but hoping everything is ok. The internet has me all freaked out.

Answer

I’m a type one diabetic so I have a non functioning pancreas literally forever (lol). Your body is just over compensating. Try and eat small meals or snacks throughout the day, protein is your friend to keep a level and consistent blood sugar.

Answer

Mine came back at 54 as well. Just means our pancreas is working TOO well. Our body is recognizing there is so much sugar in our system and is working overdrive to metabolize it. My doctor wasn’t worried about it, she just said to make sure i am eating/snacking every couple hours!

Answer

Keep something like this in your purse if you get shaky they work well!

Answer

I had hypoglycaemia last pregnancy.
I basically had to switch my diet and go full carbohydrate and eat lots of sugar because eating healthy just DID NOT raise my sugar high enough and I was in danger of constantly fainting.
So this in turn made me gain a bunch but it had to be done.
Whole meal carbohydrates as they take longer to digest... so brown rice, wholemeal bread, oats was a must as that’s really heavy on the belly and keeps sugars up for a longer period of time.
I also had to carry around jelly beans, sugared drink and water with me 24/7 unless I was at home.
