I would just like to comment, as a health care worker who works in an endocrinology office with diabetic all day, the endocrinologists I work with state that it is normal for young healthy women to have low blood sugars <70, and be just fine. I personally have experienced a blood sugar of 37, and with no "treatment of the low", it was back up to the 90 by the time I got home. Also, the dietician in my office has worn one of the new glucose sensors, and had lows nearly every night (is not diabetic or PCOS) and always recovered just fine. Last but not least, one of the docs in my office recently wore a glucose sensor, and found he was in the 50s blood sugar during a meeting and was fine as well. In a nutshell, I have to say that unless you are diabetic on insulin, your body WILL bring up the sugar on it's own, by means of glucagon (a hormone) that is generated by the liver. Hope this helps!?! |
