I found this for glucose, it may help: CRITERIA FOR DIAGNOSTIC

INTERPRETATION : Presence of 2 or more of the following abnormal serum

glucose values: (1> 95 mg/dl FBS; 2>180mg/dl at 60 min after glucose

load; 3>155mg/dl at 120 min after glucose load; 4> 140 mg/dl at 180 min

after glucose load0 qualifies for the biochemical diagnosis of

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus. Patterns of glucose level abnormality

other than the aforementioned criterion indicate Impaired Glucose

Tolerance

If I read it correctly it looks like you are okay but I'm not a doctor.

To give you a reference here's mine: start 118; 30/208; 60/284; 90/264;

120/190; 180/86. Doctor at NIH said it confirmed I had diabettes.

I did not find anything on insulin but I would expect ypur BG to shoot

up because you just drank all that sweet stuff. My guess is that your

insulin would go up to try and reduce the high glucose and then reduce

as the glucose came under control. (I base this on the way the nurses

treated my DM when I was at NIH. If blood sugar was over 140 they gave

me insulin.) Maybe someone else will check in and we'll see if I'm

right!

The normal ranges are

glucose 70-115

insulin 2.5-25

I did not do any special diet prep, just regular DASH diet all the time. No

meds.

The issue I see is that BG crashes to 55 at 120min (from 133@60min).

Is this so-called reactive hypoglycemia?

Thank you for your reply.

Your blood sugar results appear to be within the lab's normal range except for

one. It's been years since I went through hypoglycemia/IR testing, but I do

remember my BG results after the glucose were mostly in the low 50s, and at one

point got so low that I passed out.

At the time my doctor told me that the OGTT is really only reliable for

diagnosing DM. But the fact that I passed out during the test was a good sign

that something was wrong!

For a month or so afterward he had me test my own blood sugar after meals to

establish that it did indeed drop down to dangerously low levels (I would

sometimes black out between 40 minutes and 2 hours after eating if I ate a

carb-heavy meal, which was about all I ate in those days as I was vegetarian).

When this pattern was clearly established, then I got a diagnosis of

reactive/postprandial hypoglycemia.

For diagnosing insulin resistance, IIRC additional blood tests were involved; I

think they were c-peptide and fasting insulin. Have you had those done?

Thanks , that's useful.

I don't have DM, but I was concerned about the BG crash 133->55 from 60-120min.

I've had tremors and twitching around that time and a shakeness feeling.

Found some website where they indicated that this type of crash and then rebound

to normal BG levels after 3h indicates reactive hypoglycemia:

http://hypoglykemie.nl/gtt.htm

I started experiencing low BG spells during the last couple of months and was

questioning if these are another face of PA.

My reactive hypo/IR seems to have corrected itself since the adrenalectomy, at

least based on c-peptide testing and postprandial symptoms. (I opted not to

repeat the OGTT.) In the days before my surgery, even a high-protein/low-carb

meal (e.g. plain chicken and a green veggie) would give me reactive hypo... now

I am able to eat small amounts of rice or potatoes without any hypo symptoms.

You know I also get the 1AM wakeup calls. Every day without a fail.

But mine comes with heart racing too. And with tremors and leg cramps.

Since I'm DASHing this cannot be low-K symptom.

You are so right about changing habits. I used to be a huge fan of chocolates

and all sweets stuff but after starting serious DASH those are also out (though

I eat bananas which have lots of sugars).

The problem I have is that I keep gaining weight. Eating a heavy meal before

going to bed is what I was trying to avoid.

Thanks for chiming in !

Thanks MS for replying. It seems you've had similar issues before ADX.

I have had one fasting insulin and c-peptide in the past:

Insulin (fasting) = 10.7 (2.5-25 uIU/mL)

C-peptide (fasting) = 2.8 (1.1-5.0 ng/mL)

Also I've had hemoglobin A1C before:

Insulin (fasting) = 16.9 (2.5-25 uIU/mL)

HbA1C (fasting) = 5.5 (4.8-6.4 %)

Been told that ALL are good/normal.

I hear ya' Max!

But my incorrectly drawn K has never been below 3.7 and as high as 4.1 when

heavy DASHing.

You could be right though that K=3.7 is way too low for my body since I do not

have any K reading when I was perfectly healthy. But I usually supplement K with

DASH, banana and V8 or coconut water.

And I wake up because my heart will start racing. It's happening every other

That could explain why when BG crashed 133->55 between 60-120min into OGTT I

started experiencing twitching and cold sweats (55 is below the BG normal range)

Dr. Grim, is there any fix for reactive hypoglycemia in PA (aside from the

obvious DASHing in very small frequent meals)?

Thank you for you advice, greatly appreciated!

My doc knew that; I should have mentioned it to give him credit where due.

Exactly why I didn't repeat the OGTT after my Adx - I will never eat a high-carb

diet again due to my food intolerances (when one can't eat grains or fruit or

sugar, it's pretty hard to eat high carb!)

In the U.S. this is rarely a problem - the standard American diet is nearly

always carb-heavy.

Yes it SEEMS a low-K/high-Na reaction.

But my last 24h urine sodium was 68 mMol/24h (1563 mg of Na).

So it's not Na/K imbalance. It has to be something else (maybe

hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis suppression due to high aldo

when the body is fighting to bring everything back in balance).

> I agree THAT sounds like classic low K reaction. Or mag. or both. The peeing,

the cramps, the heart feeling funny is exactly what low K does. Are you certain

you're not getting up over the 1500 mark when DASHing (are you having a big

dinner?) The peeing and cramps certainly aren't the low blood sugar norm, and if

you're peeing every time you wake up - then somethings triggering it and going

out with your pee. That's exactly what K does when the aldo and sodium crowd it

out.
