Hi…..when coming up from a low I usually feel tired for a good 2-3 hours before gaining my strength back.
I think I know what you mean. I get anxiety and shakes from lows, and if they are really low, I get the rapid heartbeat. Sometimes I'll notice my shakes lessen once the low goes back up, but they are still slightly there for a while afterward, as well as the anxiety. For me, I think it depends on how low I got and how many carbs I ate/how fast-acting the carbs were. The more carbs/the faster they worked, I felt like the anxiety went away more quickly. But then you have to be careful of going too high too. 🤷
Yes, experiencing residual anxiety after a hypoglycemic (low blood sugar) episode is common. The stress hormones and inflammation caused by hypoglycemia can last for several days after the incident. This can lead to feelings of anxiety and stress lingering in your body. Having an action plan and discussing with a trusted Show Full Answer
What numbers do you consider low when this is happening?
I don’t treat until 65, then I pop a few Smarties and keep on moving/working/going. Do you bounce around in your range frequently??? Unstable blood sugar can make residuals from lows and highs stick around. What range do you target and when are you treating g?
Yes I have had that happen.
