Ok, so today I was at Uni & we went for a break @ 1030. Before the break I was feeling quite shakey and kinda sick, but I thought that might just be because I hadnt eaten breakfast --- but then I thought 'hey I never have breakfast anyway!!'
Then I went up some stairs, had this really intense dizzy feeling, bad shakes and felt sick to my stomach just before falling UP the stairs and back down again! (HOW EMBARRASING! Luckily I was with a group of friends & no-one else was around) I really hurt myself trying to break my fall. On the one hand I bent my fingers back and the other hand got crushed because I felt really weak to support myself!
I was on my way to get something to eat, and did so. (Sausage roll with cooked plum tomatoes & baked beans) Then about 10-15 mins later I checked my b/g levels (with stus spare meter I always carry in my bag) and I was 4.5... I know, not majorly low.
When I got back to class I still felt really sick, shakey and dizzy, but now also really tired and couldnt focus/pay attention??!
This isnt the first time something like this has happened.. Like for instance yesterday. I got home from uni, felt ok just a headache from the lecture!
Had some supernoodles for lunch, then about 30-45 mins after I felt really sick & so dizzy I couldnt stand up. Luckily I was in bed, and thought a nap would help, which it did a little but I still felt sick & dizzy a half hour later when I woke up.
I have been to the doctors 3 times before about this dizziness & sickness. Each time they say that there is nothing to worry about - But hello - i think there is?!?!?! This has been happening on and off for the past year and a half. Way before stu was diagnosed.
Its only within the last 3-4 months that my balance has reallly become affected.
Stu said that I might be hypoglycemic (sp - sorry guys!)
Does anyone have any other ideas??
I have ANOTHER Dr's appt booked, so any suggestions of what I could ask about when I go to see them would be MOST appriciated.
