A member asked:
What is considered low blood sugar within 3 hours of eating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood sugar: You need to measure your blood sugar before breakfast, document what you had for breakfast and between breakfast and lunch, then re-check your blood sugar before lunch. Those numbers should be close to each other. If there is a big drop or a big gain between breakfast and lunch I would strongly suggest you see either your doctor or a dietitian to get things under better control.
