HOWEVER! losing weight might also be a sign of hypoglycemia because your body may process glucose too well, leaving you SOL later in the day when you need that.

Signs of Hypoglycemia:
Shaking
Lethargy
Decreased mental awareness (might feel like you're high/tripping and NO i'm not kidding).
cold sweat
irritability
weakness
numbness in the mouth or hands
in some, dialated pupils.


I have a lot of these symtoms during days right before my period )maybe the first day or two) anyway. I have passed out before and have gone to multiple doctors and they keep telling me i don't have diabetes, nice to know. Anyway, i have discovered on my own that i have problems regulating my blood sugar and have also discovered the relationship between estorgen, or lack of estrogen and low blood sugar. Anyway, sometimes a person can pass out and i just wanted to say that the doctors might not always know why. Good Luck in your search for an answer. Since i don't know you or your doctor i am not going to tell you what to do, but in my situation i have seeked out aditional doctors advice and if you do not find an answer then keep searching.
