Talk to your doctor : You should discuss your symptoms with your doctor and get a complete physical to include lab work. Also talk to your doctor about your diet. Be sure you are eating a variety of foods and taking in enough calories to sustain your level of activity. You could be experiencing low blood glucose when you don't eat for several hours. Stay safe and avoid drastic dietary changes that can be harmful.
