The site is:

www.fibromyalgiatreatment.com/hypoglycemia.htm

Yes, if it won't come up, just type in something like " What is

hypoglycemia " or " symptoms of hypoglycemia "

And of course, I would love for you to email me anytime. That would

be great. We can help one another and encourage one another to

continue with the diet. In fact, I am going to post my " testimony "

in just a few minutes. I hope and pray it encourages you even now.

Blessings to you, and hope to talk with you more...

" Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar reactions).

These reactions occur because there is too much insulin in your blood stream and

not enough sugar going to your brain and muscles to help them function. "

Before jumping to conclusions, perhaps you may want to test for blood sugar,
