Hello. : Hello. I can't diagnose the cause of your symptoms. However another possibility could be reactive hypoglycemia. The body may send out a lot of Insulin in response to all the sugar that was ingested. The Insulin overshoots and you end up with very low blood sugar and thus can feel ill. I suggest that you see your doctor to find out what is happening with your blood sugars. Take care.
