My two (grown-up) cents on the sweating issues

[Guest guest]

I am still (at 21 years of age) pretty hypoglycemic and over the years

I've been able to discern that sweating is my *first* sign that my

blood sugar is beginning to fall. My BSLs may not necessarily be

below normal range when I start to sweat profusely, but I've found

that they will be soon if I don't eat something in a timely manner.

Hillary nailed it right on the head. For some reason, RSS

individuals spill ketones long before they become hypoglycemic. And

this sweating is part of the process. Every parent needs to ensure

that their child is not spilling ketones if they are having

nighttime or daytime sweating like this. Use over the counter

ketosticks and check their ketone levels. If they are abnormal,

your child needs more carbohydrates. Again, please contact MAGIC

tollfree 800-3MAGIC3 for the documents Dr. Harbison has written

explaining why this occurs and what you can do to prevent it.
