> Could you tell me what kind of bloodwork she did? I'm supposed to get some kind of glucose test done - the one where you drink some liquid and then wait 3 hours. I forget the name though. My doctor thinks I may have some of these issues also.

Brooke - yes, that is the correct blood test to use, but it's important what results within that blood test the doctor orders. If it goes for 5 hours it will tell you if it is hypoglycemia (I think that is also important to know). If it goes for 3 hours, the doc is probably testing your diabetes. My test which was three hours tested (and I am reading from the results)
FTT
ACTH
C-Peptide
Insulin Stim
Cortisol Stim

It was the insulin stim on mine that was high at the 2 hour mark. I do know that
While I am clear that I have Insulin Sensitivity even after reading all the books on it, I'm confused. After eating certain things I get so sleepy I feel like I'm going to die. Today I ate a Healthy choice Fudge Bar. It's approved by weight watchers, only has 16 carbs which is within the 30 you are allowed at each meal and has 4 grams of protein which is a good ratio carbs to protein, but within 20 minutes I was so sleepy I could not function. I am having a great deal of difficulty determining what exactly it is that makes me sleepy. This morning I had eggs mixed with zuchini, peppers, onions and put salsa on it and I felt like a tiger until I ate the bar at 2pm. Does anyone know how to solve the "sleepy" puzzle?
