I am hypoglycemic since 2006, so just by now I found out this is fue to adrenal glands exhaustion. My hypo was so-so, not severe, helped by just a cup of soup every 1-2 hours and it helped or a yougurt 500 ml. I became pregnant in 2011 and I had a lot of hypoglicemic attaks, everyday, even at night! I woke up, I really was very hungry and sugar was low in blood. I found this out when I checked in glucometer measures, and doc said I have hypoglycemia. It is awfull...
Night cravings for food...
I woke up, I ate and went to bed, again I woke up - ate and go to bed, it was so bad... I did not know what to do, so by some mistake I fount out that Prenatal vitamins that I began to take from week 22 helped not to wake up at night, because there was no attack in the night when I took them.
They contained:
A - 5000 me
C - 100 mg
E - 11 Me
D3 - 400 Me
Fe - 60 mg
B1, B2, B3> B6, B9, B12 - 4mkg - small amounts, except for B3 and B9
Zinc - 25 mg
Calcium - not much
And this should NOT contain Iodine. Cause Iodine made hypoglycemia worse.
So NO iodine for hypoglemic people.
When I began to take iodine - the attacks were again, but in the morning and lunch, so I had to stop intake.
But I am lactating and my hypoglycemia came worse than ever...
I have severe hypoglycemia NOW!
After C-section lost 900 ml of blood, and I had 4 days without attacks, and could live without sugary food!!!!!!! I was so happy! But on day 4 milk came and A LOT of milk, I had the first severe attack on 5-th day and so on...
a lot of milk comes out,
also I am sweating so much, water falls of my, the whole body from head to feet sweats hard... I have severe attacks, if I dont eat. OK
if anyone can help, with suggestions PLEASE HELP!
I try to find what can help? ANY SUGGESTIONS!
