Reactive Hypoglycemia terrified and confused

I tried ryvita. Didn’t work. I spiked on a boiled egg and lactose free coffee. Last night I ate salmon half an egg cheese spread on half a slice granary and went all night no hypo. Feel amazing today but early days xx
 
Yay! Just a bit of 'real' fibre worked - I hope it does again.
 
Fantastic - we are all different in terms of which carbs we can tolerate, so it's just a question of finding out what works for you. Once you've done that and got your blood sugar more stable you should hopefully continue to feel a lot better.

Btw I can tolerate quite a lot of carbs, but a boiled egg would send my blood sugar into the high teens - I have a slight intolerance to them, I think. I had to stop eating them, I was using ever more insulin when I ate them and it was making no difference at all. I've only come across one other person here who has the same problem with eggs, but there are some who can't eat nuts for the same reason.
