Cheryl's Diary

I was wondering if any of the rest of you with fibro. were told that you have reactive hypoglycemia.  I was.  From a three hour glucose tolerance test I took (at least I think thatis what they called it)  they noticed at the one hour mark my blood sugar reading was in the normal range.  At the two hour mark my blood sugar was low.  I guess they explained to me that my body was overcompensating by producing too much insulin.  I guess it was explained to me to help deal with this condition I should eat smaller more frequent meals making sure I have protein with each one.  I have been working on doing this but it sure isn't easy at times.  I really crave carbs.  Do any of the rest of you with fibro. whether you have been diagnosed with reactive hypoglycemia or not really crave carbs?  It can definitely be a challenge.  I do notice when I do eat a lot of carbs that I have been craving it just messes us my energy level even more so I do know it's important.  Logically knowing it's important though and carrying it out can be two very different things.  Well enough on that issue.  Later all.  Take care. <hugs> Cheryl
