What Hypoglycemia looks/feels like, from someone who has it (for writers/artists who wish to include the topic of Hypo in their SGA (or other) art/stories)
Summery:
I'm making this post as a resource for fellow writers in the SGA fandom (and others in general) because I've come across one too many fanfics which explore Rodney's hypoglycemia but do so in a... let's just say less than realistic fashion. Now I have nothing against these stories, they're still fun! and cool!, and it's not the writer's fault most of the time that info on what Hypo is like can be quite misleading online, but I wanted to make this quick resource for anyone in the SGA fandom, writers/artists in general or just curious people who want an overview of what hypo looks like (to an outsider), feels like (to the person suffering it) and what the signs/symptoms are + how to treat it!
First off, let's dispel some myths!
"Only people with diabetes/pre-diabetes get hypoglycemic" False. Hypoglycemia can occur in anyone and there are various causes. Let's get rid of the fancy words for a second and remember that hypoglycemia just means low blood sugar. If anyone avoids eating sugars & carbs long enough, their blood sugar will drop dangerously low and they will become hypoglycemic. However, people who *have* hypoglycemia typically mean they have a condition which causes their blood sugar to drop dangerously low more often than most or despite a healthy diet. People with diabetes are at risk of hypoglycemic attacks if they take too much insulin for example, but diabetes is not a requirement for the condition and many (like myself, and presumably McKay) are not diabetic.
"You have to go without food for a long time to get a hypoglycemic attack" False. When considering non-diabetic hypoglycemia (which is what I'll mainly be covering because it's what I have) there are 2 variations of conditions which cause hypoglycemic attacks. The first, and the one from which the above presumption is created, is called "fasting hypoglycemia". In this condition, your body constantly produces slightly too much insulin which will gradually drop your blood sugar levels (but faster than what is considered "normal" for a non hypoglycemic person). People with this version of the condition will typically start experiencing symptoms 8-12 hours since they last consumed sugar/carbs, and the symptoms will show & progress more slowly compared to the second condition variation (you might feel light headed, then an hour later a bit sick, then another hour later more sick etc etc). The second variation is called "reactive hypoglycemia", in which your body normally produces the correct amount of insulin (thus fasting is not a major risk as with the 1st variation), but your body does produce substantially too much insulin specifically in response to a large influx of sugar in your system. People with this version will experience symptoms only 2-4 hours after an influx of sugar/carbs (sugars tend to trigger attacks faster, carbs tend to trigger slower), and due to the sudden nature of the insulin spike, symptoms can appear and worsen rapidly (it can take as little as 5 minutes to go from "I'm a bit dizzy" to "get me a bucket or I'll spew on you"). NOTE: of course, each person's condition will differ and how they present/progress will differ too.
"Hypoglycemia isn't a serious condition" Ok I have to include this because it's just plain wrong. Hypoglycemia is often not severe if caught early, and the fact that the cure is literally just consuming sugar (eg. drink some juice) it can come across as no big deal or even silly, but make no mistake, hypoglycemia can and does kill. Without sugar your brain will eventually shut down and you will die. Don't make fun of me, just give me my juice, thanks.
OK, now that that's out of the way, on to the meat of this post!
What does Hypoglycemia look like to onlookers, and what does it feel like to experience it?
Depending on the type of hypoglycemia someone has, the presentation of their symptoms will vary. They can either have a slow or rapid onset, and remember that not everyone will show the exact same symptoms. The nature and severity of the symptoms will also depend on the stage of the hypoglycemic attack. While this isn't official, I personally categorize my hypoglycemic attack into 3-4 stages, and they appear as follows below. Each stage can last either mere minutes (5/10/20 minutes) or hours depending on the nature (fasting/reactive) and progression (rapid/slow) of the attack. Note, I'm getting my "onlooker" data from my amazing partner, who has to deal with my sorry ass, and my experience data is of course mostly from my experience, though I try to include other possible/common experiences too, but keep that in mind your experience may differ <3
Stage 1: Mild
This is the first stage of a hypoglycemic attack and will have the least severe symptoms. For many the symptoms might be so subtle that they go unnoticed, possibly up until the next stage of the condition, especially if your condition advances rapidly. A person in stage 1 will 100% still be able to eat/drink foods/drinks with sugars in them by themselves and will not need a glucose drip yet, just give them some juice. The symptoms: In this stage you typically start with the emotive/mental symptoms, described as "feelings of unease" etc. You might also experience mild physical symptoms such as feeling peckish or being a bit jittery, but not much so. How it feels: You might feel jumpy, anxious, annoyed, irritable, and have a general sense of being on edge. For some this expresses as anger, for others fear, and it's not always the same each time. You might feel a little bit hungry and your mind might be a bit more scattered than normal, but generally you'll feel fine if a bit uncomfortable. How it looks: Due to the mild nature of the symptoms in stage 1, it's very possible that onlookers will totally miss any sign/symptom in this stage. Your best bet is noticing that the person is more irritable or jumpy than normal, but otherwise it's likely to go overlooked until stage 2 hits.
Stage 2: Moderate
This is the 2nd stage of a hypoglycemic attack and is typically the stage where both the person suffering from the attack and onlookers are most likely to first notice the symptoms and piece together that a hypo attack is occurring. The symptoms in this stage is slightly more severe and physical symptoms start to present more prominently (allowing onlookers to notice what is happening). A person in stage 2 will likely still be able to eat/drink foods/drinks with sugars in them by themselves and will not need a glucose drip yet, just give them some juice. The symptoms: At this stage physical symptoms become more prominent. Most sufferers will have constant tremors in their limbs, making it difficult to do fine work as their hands will become clumsy and shaky. Their breathing might also be shaky/uneasy as a result. Rapid heart rate and what is known as "hot flashes" (sudden spike in body temperature, causing the face to become warm, flushed, and the skin to become clammy) will likely occur. This stage also typically features feelings of fatigue, moderate to severe nausea, disorientation/confusion and weakness. How it feels: Absolutely fucking terrible. Stage 2 is the worst feeling of the 4 as you are typically still lucid enough to know how shit you feel while feeling worse than in stage 1. You will feel hot, feverish, and the feeling of hunger will typically be replaced by being sick to your stomach. You will likely throw up. Your brain will start to go foggy and it will be hard to concentrate/work. You will feel tired, but too uncomfortable to fall asleep. You will likely feel uncomfortably hot and sweaty. Your hands will be shaking too badly for you to do much (drinking water becomes hard because liquid gets shaken out of glass) and your arms/legs will start to feel heavy. If you're not sitting already, you will want to sit down soon because legs no work. How it looks: The person might be flushed with a sheen of sweat on their forehead, clammy shaky hands, wobbly legs. They might also turn pale. They will look tired. They likely won't be able to hold a conversation, coming across as confused and disorientated. They will likely throw up. Imagine someone with a bad flu but they're also drunk, and that's pretty much what it will look like.
Stage 3: Severe
The third stage of Hypo, at this point the symptoms may become alarming and the person may not be able to consume foods/drinks themselves anymore and thus may need a glucose drip.
The symptoms: At this stage the person will likely become fully disorientated and incapacitated. They may be unable to walk/stand themselves and thus might need help moving around. If they haven't thrown up yet they probably will. They will likely be unable to focus. Their vision may become blurred or they may pass out. Slurred speech, loss of consciousness and severe confusion is likely. Mobility will be greatly limited. How it feels: Surprisingly not nearly as bad as stage 2, considering you're out of it for most of the time. You might feel sleepy, uncomfortable, vaguely aware that you feel sick, but at this stage you will likely be so out of it that you'll be drifting in and out of consciousness for the most part. Things might feel vaguely off and you will have gaps in your awareness. You probably won't want to move much if at all and just sit/lay wherever you are and hope to pass out (because being passed out feels better than being cold and hot and clammy and shaky and btw you're tired and hungry and sleep sounds good right now) How it looks: Fucking terrifying. The person will at this stage lose a lot of awareness and very likely start passing out/drifting off. They will likely stop responding, their speech will almost definitely be slurred and/or incoherent. They might still throw up/move but not with much will of their own. If you haven't gotten them medical attention yet at this point, do so, because they probably won't be able to drink juice themselves to get better.
Stage 4: Worst case scenario
This stage I have not experienced myself (thank the gods) and is reserved for some of the severe complications which can/will occur if someone isn't treated during stage 3. Namely: Seizure, coma, death. The person will NOT be able to consume sugar themselves at this point and will need medical intervention (if applicable), though ideally you want to get treated BEFORE then. There isn't really much to say on this stage because it's pretty much as labeled. Get them treatment or they will pass out and eventually (if still untreated) die.
So for all y'all wump writers out there, make sure to get McKay to Carson/Keller before then ;)
But anyway, I hope this can give some useful insight to people on what Hypo actually looks/feels like, and hopefully well have less stories where the symptoms and progression are all jumbled out of order and/or myths about how/when/why hypo presents will be reduced.
Take care and remember to carry an emergency juice box ;)

I have found one study that associates non-diabetic insulin resistance in people with PCOS with gastroparesis and I really just want to stress the fact that we know so little about PCOS truly outside the fertility impacts
I am still investigating my cause of GP but realizing that it could be the result of my intersex condition is staggering. I have so many symptoms/conditions like reactive hypoglycemia and gastroparesis that mirror complications of diabetes while my A1C and other levels are in range to indicate it’s not diabetes but my PCOS

So I got a new nanny watch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
MOSOKI
Smart Watch for Men Women
https://a.co/d/dSdGNmc
For more info, see the previous post.
Part of my motivation for getting a new watch was that my old one had snapped the band. The other part, to be fair, is that I've been having a bunch of odd, non-specific symptoms. I have also asked my primary to do some bloodwork. She had no problem with any of the tests I requested. However, she had a feeling the insurance would be upset with a fishing expedition. So we broke my requests up into a couple of batches. Hopefully, as we move forward, we will have more clarification and a better idea of where to look.
For years, I have said that I have low blood sugar. I have gotten scoffs and derision from many, especially my family. My Dad's family runs to Diabetes and Pancreatic Cancer(and Heart Disease and any Cancer you can name) So me having HYPOgylcemia? F*ing Hysterical!🤣😂🤣😂
But everyone forgets my grandpop (Dad's dad) could pack away Tastykakes by the metric ton and never gain a pound. I don't know if he was ever tested. My Mom had reactive hypoglycemia. Basically, it is pre-diabetes. Your body doesn't handle sugar well. When you eat your body overreacts and sends out too much insulin. This makes your blood sugar drop too low.
True primary hypoglycemia is unusual. It is usually caused by something. It is just a matter of finding out what is causing it.
My thought is that having an idea of when(and maybe what) is triggering the lows and or highs might be helpful. Even if the numbers aren't accurate, the same should not be true for the trends.
These newer watches are very clear that these are wellness devices only. That they are not meant as substitutes for medical care.They are not approved in the US for Medical devices. They are making these overseas,(*cough* China *cough*) where there are different guidlines for these types of devices. They do have alarms for danger levels like low/high blood sugar, High pulse, irregular heart beat, hypoxia(low oxygen in the blood) and sleep apnea.
That being said, it already has been and I assume it will continue to be increasingly more so incredibly fascinating.
My blood sugar, well everything, seems to randomly jump about, up and down, at the whims of a madman. My temperature is sharing Mother Nature's menopause.(I did think that was part of my own problems but blood tests have indicated that is not the case.
Whatever is going on, it is clear that there is SOMETHING, at least. That's progress.
Ask any person who has chronic illnesses. It can be hard convincing doctors to take you seriously. I've had my share of that. Most of mine are good, but sometimes they slip. I do understand.
I get the weird shit. Do you know the saying, "if you hear hoofbeats think horses"?
Well, when a new doctor or nurse gets smarmy and says that crap? I have a pre-programmed response.
I'm a pygmy zebra running down Broadway in the middle of rush hour.
Believe it or not, that actually came from one of my doctors. I don't remember if it was my first endocrinologist or the surgical oncologist. They noted that if something happens to me, it may not be fatal, but it will be strange.
With me? It's never horses.
Hopefully, with this watch, I will be able to find the hoofprints and estimate the size of the zebra and in which direction it is heading.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So for lows, I'm getting down to 95° core temperature and 59ml/dg blood sugar.
In the other direction, I had a temperature of 98.7° for a "record" high. and 130 for a high blood sugar.

The Ultrametabolism diet promotes eating raw, organic foods in exchange of processed items that come in a can or box. Demands the buying several different fresh veggies and fruits as well as lean meats.

Atkins right, while much his dying does not prove him wrong (slipping on the ice whilst getting exercise gives him quality. He lived his recommendations). I am not an Atkins' follower, but I am both a Naturopathic Doctor and a medical researcher, with a competent grounding in nutrition and biochemistry. My comments are based chiefly on the new Diet book, (Dr.Atkins' New Diet Revolution, 2002) along with a few comments on Atkins For Entire life. Well, the doctors had nothing which helped me to!

Examples of non-impact carbs that you will see in low-carb foods and supplements include fiber, sorbitol, maltitol, and glycerol. Fiber is completely indigestible the particular body and passes through unused. Sorbitol, maltitol and glycerol are what recognized as "sugar alcohols." They are digested through body but have hardly any effect on blood sugar levels. The outcome of all of this occurence is that the body is now trained burn off that extra fat and you're able to finally plan the return (or arrival) of your six pack abs. Go jump for joy, then come in order to read outside of.

Would you need to get information to a hot sweaty room a treadmill of the classes? No, only this is convenient for a person to do it and appreciate making time for it.

Can you utilize machines from a gym or at habitat? The machine based cardio programs are sometimes a better choice if you might have injuries mindful about will be less body impact stress on your overall body. And it really doesn't matter what piece. My only advice is for anyone who is going also included with machines planet gym, alternate between the various types. Maybe the step Mill Creek Keto Diet one day, rower the next, seated recumbent bike position, maybe even a spin class, or jogging on the treadmill. Would certainly to break it up so you do not do the same type each time and provide your body different movement patterns to sit in while preventing repetitive sort.

The eating habits are similar to low carb diet, but it really has a elaborate name. It really is called a cyclical keto diet (CKD). Now I fully grasp people have a tendency to stray from diets, so here is diet program. Kapish? Some diet plans work better as weighed against others. Heighten diets perform greatest. Sadly low-calorie keto diet facts diet plans don't profit the body eliminate of fat. Any time calorie consumption is reduced too substantially our systems go in a very starvation technique. So why can you "eat all you have to?" Because you are not eating any processed foods, white flour or sugary desserts. One might overeat on any regarding diet, however it is harder to do on the mediterranean diet. Non-impact carbs are powerful at decreasing the insulin response you get from consuming meals made all of them. This means insulin levels will stay more even throughout the day, which will definitely boost body's capacity to burn built up fat.

Hey you have hypoglycemia I just found out yesterday I have it do you have any tips thanks!
yeehaw! mild TWs for nutrition talk and mentions of eating disorder stuff + fatphobia
disclaimer: i’m not a medical professional, and am not qualified to give Actual Medical Advice. this is all based on personal, anecdotal experience.
i’m diagnosed with “chronic non-reactive hypoglycemia” or something like that- from what i know, it’s different than the slightly more common reactive hypoglycemia in that my body simply produces extra insulin all the time, while with reactive hypoglycemia your body produces too much insulin when it starts to absorb glucose resulting in a drop in blood sugar after meals.
when i first got diagnosed, i was also dealing with an eating disorder, so things were kind of muddled and i struggled for a while to keep myself physically healthy; overall, for both reactive and non-reactive hypo as well as temporary hypoglycemia caused by diabetes, it’s Super Fuckin’ Important to eat regularly. most fad diets will be actively harmful, especially restrictive ones or ones that involve intermittent fasting
it’s kind of a common misconception that foods with fat/sugar/carbs = Evil, but with this kind of blood sugar weirdness, it’s vital to make sure you’re getting adequate amounts of those; folks with reactive hypoglycemia need to eat foods with protein and fat, especially. personally, i snack a lot, and carry glucose pills or little candies wherever i go just in case. juice + cheese sticks are your friend. obviously, this differs from person to person based on individual dietary needs- i’m a vegetarian and allergic to most meats as well as tree nuts, which cuts out several mainstream protein choices. i’d definitely recommend seeing a nutritionist if you’re able to.
i recommend making a list of the symptoms you experience when your blood sugar is low, especially if you’re like me and bad at keeping track of things; if you already know what you’re likely to experience, it’s easier to catch yourself before it gets too low and you just feel super sick. for me, low blood sugar brings migraines, headaches, fatigue, irritability, and a higher likelihood to dissociate, have sensory overload, or partake in negative mental health coping mechanisms. my Tourette’s symptoms are harder to hold in. when it’s super low, i get shaky and might have seizures depending on how severe it is.
your doctor may or may not have recommended that you check your blood sugar regularly; do what the doctor says on this. generally, follow what your doctor says.
if you’re on meds for other health issues, particularly autoimmune stuff, thyroid function stuff, or psychiatric meds, it’s important to take them regularly. overall, just pay attention to your health and what your body is feeling, as much as you can. eat every few hours. drink water. keep your alcohol intake low, if you drink. et cetera.
lastly: fatphobia is a thing. internalized fatphobia is a thing. please do not let it stop you from eating regularly, because all bodies need food and your body is built to need it in specific ways.

Eight Causes Of Low Blood Sugar Without Diabetes
Tumblr media
Does low blood sugar level levels run in the family? This may be significant, especially left unattended, and unfortunately several don't understand it!

Tumblr media
Eight Source of Low Blood Glucose Without Diabetes
You're possibly wondering: Exactly what creates low blood glucose also without having diabetes? There are actually a variety of causes, such as:
Drinking Too Much Alcohol. When your blood sugar level is reduced, after that the pancreas launches hormones called glucagon. This assists the liver break down saved power, normalizing blood sugar level degrees. If you drink way too much alcohol, the liver is not able to function correctly, not able to release sugar back to the bloodstream. This triggers momentary hypoglycemia.
Certain Medications. If you take diabetic issues drug also without having the condition, then this can trigger hypoglycemia as a drug like these would generally reduce one's blood sugar degrees. It can additionally be a side result from various other type of medicine, like:

Kidney Problems. If you have a trouble with your kidneys, then the medicine and also food yo take in accumulates in the blood stream. The accumulation modifications blood sugar level levels, thus bring about hypoglycemia as well as other symptoms if not dealt with well.
Pancreatic Tumor. This is an unusual and severe condition which can cause hypoglycemia. Growths found in the pancreas can create it to produce excessive insulin. And when insulin levels are high, the blood sugar level levels would certainly go down. Getting rid of the lump is the very best solution
An Early Sign of Diabetes. For those without diabetic issues, this can in fact be a very early indication of the condition. If you have member of the family that have or have had diabetes and also it runs in the household, after that it's finest to have on your own inspected and also take precautionary actions to stop it.

Notes I took from diabetes lecture on 10/22:
MODY = Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young; don’t fit in with type 1 or type 2 diabetics. Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) is an inherited form of diabetes mellitus. It is caused by a change in one of eleven genes. Up to 5% of all diabetes cases may be due to MODY. This disorder is more like type 1 diabetes than type 2, although it can be confused with either type. In type 1, the pancreas cannot make and release enough insulin. People with type 2 diabetes, on the other hand, usually make enough insulin, but their bodies cannot respond to it effectively (known as insulin resistance). Type 2 diabetes is usually associated with being overweight, but that is not true of type 1 diabetes or MODY. However, obesity does matter. An obese person with a MODY gene mutation may develop symptoms of diabetes sooner than someone of normal weight.
Gestational DM: 50 gram non fasting glucose test, then do 100 gram OGTT.
Pts with DM1 have ketosis.
Overweight or obese pts with risk factors for DM should be screened. Pre-diabetics should be screened, so should women who had gestational DM, and those older than or equal to 45.
DM1 - send to ophthalmology 5 years after dx.
DM1 are lifelong diabetics. Need baseline insulin.
Levemir = long acting baseline insulin. Novolog (insulin aspart) and humalog (insulin lispro) are rapid-acting and thus given for meals. Baseline insulin isn’t meant to cover meals. Short-acting insulin given for pts on tube feeding.
U-500 is very concentrated insulin, given for obese pts. U-100 is given for normal pts.
Continuous glucose monitor = CGM; has calculators to help determine how much insulin to give.
Autoimmune diseases are associated with DM.
Always ask about ophthalmologist appointments because they need to get their eyes checked every 5 years.
Reasonable A1c is less than 7%. It should be 6.5% in older pts with risk for hypothyroidism.
Classification of hypoglycemia:
Level 1 - I missed this. According to Medscape:
Thereare 3 categories of clinical hypoglycemia: (1) fasting, (2) reactive or postprandial, and (3) drug-related. Fasting hypoglycemia is defined as the inability to maintain glucose homeostasis in the postabsorptive, or fasting, state. Hypoglycemia (BG Metformin is firstline. It causes diarrhea when you first start it. Make sure pt takes it with food.
GLP-1 agonists (e.g., liraglutide) and SGLT2 inhibitors (e.g., canagliflozin) are preferred now.
Alpha glucosidase inhibitors cause GI sxs.
Cardiac hx: start with GLP-1 agonist or SGLT2 inhibitor. For hypoglycemia concern, start with same meds.
Ask about strokes, CAD, etc. Reduce risk of these by starting ASA if indicated.
If younger than 40 and no ASCVD risks, no need for statin. If pt has ASCVD risk, start statins.
Prevent ASCVD with ASA or clopidogrel (brand name Plavix).
