Blood sugar: Do you know that by your symptoms? In any case, please see your doctor. You may need a specific food plan or other treatment. Peace and good health.

Requires evaluation: The natural body reaction to sugary sweets is an outpouring of insulin to transfer the sugar into cells. In some people the amount of insulin exceeds the need & a drop of the blood sugar ensues.There are other mechanisms that are designed to bring the BS back into the normal range but your system may be unable to respond properly. You need to be evaluated to see why this happens & how to manage it
