Low blood sugar
Posted , 3 users are following.
so i got back from the doctor again he said the reason why i keep getting shakey and weak and breaking out in sweats after i eat is my blood sugar dropping and its the virus thats making my body respond differently than normal... if any of you have this feeling he told me to eat something and it will level it out again...have any of you been experiencing that during this virus?? its a scarey feeling

Not really i have felt bad since thursday about 3 oclock and am not feeling better yet. I guess my life now is suffer and try not to die. Such a depressing weekend. I dont go back to work until friday night so hopefully i feel better before then.

oh no i hope that it gets better for you expecially before work...this is such an awful virus i cant believe doctors dont know much about it...im praying for us all we will get through this eventually its just hard to see the positives through this at the moment i know ive been struggling alot lately too then sometimes you think some symptoms are gone then they come back to haunt you thats whats so discouraging about it

Yeah at this point i would kill to have one normal day to just do what i want with no symptoms but sadly that is impossible the only few days i have felt normal was when they gave me some steroids close to the beginning but no days since then. It is always something going on with me its so disheartening. I could care less about doing anything i used to enjoy i just want to be healthy and happy. I will sit at home the rest of my life if that would fix me. Just work come home and garden i would be happy with that.

same here! steroids for me helped for about a week then my body just crashed again...and i completely understand that feeling i feel the same exact way just being able to get through a day feeling normal would be a dream come true..like that would be a miracle and God does make the impossible happen just remember that shoot one day we could just wake up and feel normal its happened for some like that....my sister got mono when she was younger the only symptom she had was migraines but they lasted for 7 1/2 months and she got put on seizure medicine and something else to help with pain and literally one day it just went away like magic the switch was just turned off and she felt back to normal

That is crazy. That would just be a dream for me. Back to normal being outside and enjoying myself and being actually happy..
katelyn09436 josh46287

yes very crazy but i know i hope for better days soon too...i cant even go outside without feeling dizzy its way too humid it makes me feel worse so that makes me sad some days when its really pretty outside i miss doing things too that i use to just going walk the dog like little things you take for granted in everyday life

yeah i took so much for granted and in alabama where i live this time of year it is humid and 90+ degrees everyday its pretty bad. You would be surprised of all the little things you miss and wish you could do again. I just want to enjoy eating again that would be awesome. Like i said i just want to remember what happy is.

hoping we arnt still sick by the fall time but if we are itll be easier to handle going outside by then
josh46287 katelyn09436

Oh gosh louisiana is just as bad with the heat and probably worse with the mosquitoes. We played in a softball tournament in Shrevport about 5 years ago and they glue on my shoes literally melted it was so hot. I am not looking forward to the fall very much just because i get cold so easily. I do not enjoy freezing to death .
katelyn09436 josh46287

yes! and im in the southern part of louisiana so its even worse lol some days the heat index is 107/108 its insane...i use to get cold easy too but i have fever and am constantly hot now
josh46287 katelyn09436

Still no fever for me..maybe some in the beginning but that has never been an issue of mine.
katelyn09436 josh46287

oh well thats good because its not fun its crazy because sometimes i can get extremely cold or extremelty hot there is no in between
katelyn09436

i guess it comes and goes but i wish it would go away for good already i think if the fever got better i wouldnt be feeling as bad
josh46287 katelyn09436

I only had a fever the first few days of it maybe 3-5 days that i noticed.
katelyn09436 josh46287

well you lucked out with that i feel like i feel my worst when i get hot it makes all the symptoms bad but when im cooler i feel kind of better
josh46287 katelyn09436
Posted
I don't think lucked out is the right words for this. lol It seems everyone has their own special combination of symptoms and their own worst symptom.

i ment for not having a fever lol sorry should have been more clear with that but yeah it is different for everyone

So your sister had mono for 7 months with just a headache?
katelyn09436 josh46287
Posted
yup all she had was the bad migraines but the doctor said hers was chronic thats why they were so intense and it lasted so long...even when she was on the medicine they gave her she still felt pressure in her head but then one day it was just gone and she didnt even need the medicine anymore it was crazy she got it in 3rd grade and had to miss so much school only went in to take tests

ive heard when your younger you normally dont get as many symptoms for some reason idk if thats true or not

and at first before the specialist they just went to a doctor in our town and they scared the crap out of my parents saying she had a birth defect in her brain and needed surgery but the emergency room where i live they misdiagnose patients all the time so they went get a second opinion and good thing they did
josh46287 katelyn09436

Yeah that pretty terrible there is a big difference between a headache and a brain defect. How can a professional be that far off.
katelyn09436 josh46287
Posted
exactly! but yeah thats the hospital in our town its really bad you always here stories of people complaining about being told one thing then going see some other doctor and they tell them something completely different its not good at all...so yeah when people get really sick here and need to go to the emergency room they normally drive to lafayette or lake charles not convenient but better getting right answers than wrong ones
katelyn09436

they cant be professionals i dont even know how they got the job to be honest lol
josh46287 katelyn09436

Well i have been to probably 25 different doctors and none have given me any kind of diagnosis so i do not trust any of them now.
katelyn09436 josh46287

its sad that they dont know much about this virus i felt like each time i went to my first doctor they looked at me stupid like why is this girl back again shes a hypochondriac then i switched to the doctor my dad goes to and he actually works with an infectious disease doctor so he knew more about it...and this doctor actually does follow up appointments with me every 6 weeks the other doctor was like just rest your at the end of it..uhhh that was in april dude and im still sick i was definitely not at the end of it
