Guest guest Posted July 4, 2002 Report Share Posted July 4, 2002 Hi gang I have a problem and would like your opinion. This morning I got up ate my usual breakfast of oatmeal, two pieces of toast and a glass of 2% milk. Then around noon I had a bowl of mashed potatoes with butter. Around 3:30pm I began to shake and was extremely weak. I sat at the table in a chair and my right leg began to stomp the floor uncontrollable. Then my enitre body was shaking. I managed to get down a bite or two of potato salad some jello and milk. After several minutes this quieted the shaking. I was so tired, I had to lie down. It has been several months now since I have had an episode like this. Do any of you have any ideas what this could be. Is it Arnold rearing his head or something else? Thanks Charlotte in MO ACM1 4/19/2002 saw Dr. Oro 7/2/2002 Waiting to hear back from Dr. Oro 7 to 10 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had little if any in the foods you listed. Eggs, cheese, tuna - all very good sources of protein. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 5, 2002 Report Share Posted July 5, 2002 Hi Charlotte, It could be low blood sugar. Looking at what you consumed, it is mostly carbohydrates (a little protein at breakfast with the combo of oatmeal & milk). You need approx 46 grams of protein a day, divided up in your meals.
