non diabetic hypoglycemic symptoms yet bl/glucose reading fairly normal?
girl asked:
Occasionally I take my readings cause I borrow someones tester and it is on the low side when I am feeling the symptoms but by definition according to online its not “that” low, I am in canada so our readings are different but its usually like around the 4’s but they say to be hypoglycemia it has to be below the 4’s. Also the other day I felt really shaky and tested and it was 5.6. Can anyone please explain if they have this also and are still hypoglycemic or could it be mimicing somethign else. I do suffer with anxiety disorder but I am able to differentiate between the two. Also note I am not diabetic and never been diagnosed with hypoglycemia but I know I have to watch my sugar intake and eat high fiber and high protein foods.

I’m sorry that I cannot answer your question. I also have the same issues but have never tested myself. I also have to watch what I eat, definately no cereal in the morning or I get shaky about 2 hours later. I’ve been tested before and it was normal but when I went in for a procedure at the hospital I couldn’t eat the night before and right before my procedure my blood sugar had dropped and they had to bring it back up before they could proceed. I am anxious to hear the answer to your question. Good Luck. Just know that you are not alone with this issue.
