A member asked:
I get tachycardia when i stand up and my glucose drops fast along with it. i don't have diabetes, glucose falls 30 or more points in matter of minutes. this started a month ago, what can be causing this? anemia? dehydration? occipital stroke i had?

These symptoms can best be evaluated by a team approach: If your family Dr agrees to referrals to a cardiologist and an endocrinologist, they could search for the underlying cause or causes of the possible insulin-related glucose fluctuations, rapid heartbeat with standing, and history of a stroke.
