yes!!! I have been eating well. I'm a vegetarian and have gastropareis but you know as balanced as my body will let me. Proud of myself. I'll go to 140 after a meal. About an hour I'm at 50. What?! Doesn't even make sense. My doctor at this point is like you need a specialist, I don't think your body can do it on its own but I'm worried with everything going on that they may not understand.

Reactive if they do a 2 hour fasting with the sugar drink on you it will show that, I have reactive hypoglycemia. I would look into reactivate hypoglycemia diet, it is different then being hypoglycemic because after eating you drop after eating. They also consider it to be pre-diabetic
