Hi Courtney,
Have you had a glucose tolerance test? That should be your first step in looking at how you react to sugar. I am normal to underweight and struggle very hard to keep my blood sugars below 140 (after eating) and under 100 in the morning. My endo recommended I keep a blood sugar panel a few days out of the week just to see how the sugar progressed. Sure enough I was going out of range and so am now on Metformin to help... which it has done! You can also go on actos/avandia which are insulin sensitizers and work in a different way but don't cause those same side -effects that Metformin does.
