Low blood sugar

Asked for Female, 34 years

I am a type 2 diabetic, and for last 4 days im having a low blood sugar episode. I wake up from nap in afternoon and my blood sugar had dropped to around 80. My fasting blood sugar is usually around 110. After I ate something and started feeling better, I get bad diarrhea. Is it somehow linked to my low blood sugar? I am currently on GLUCOPHAGE and thyroxine,

Dear Patient,

For low sugar- try to not space out your meals very far apart- take multiple small meals rather than a few large meals
For diarrhea- this may be caused as a side effect of Glucophage itself rather than of the low sugar or there may be another cause for it. Its best to either go visit your primary doc or meet with one of ours for a detailed workup.
