A member asked:
If reactive hypoglycemia is not real (non-diabetic), why would my blood sugar drop to the 40s/50s at times, not overweight, no tumors. not on insulin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Merits evaluation: Perhaps the quickest way for one to get an answer would be to have one's doctor check the fasting blood insulin level and review the glucose tolerance test data. In addition, blood insulin levels checked along with the blood sugar levels during the glucose tolerance test.
