I was wondering if any of the swimmers on this board has chronic hypoglycemia. How does it affect your swimming? I was diagnosed with the condition last year after living with the symptoms my whole life (I can remember feeling weak and dizzy frequently in elementary school.) I have completely eliminated sugar and refined carbohydrates from my diet, but exersize can still be a problem. Swimming seems to be easier on me, though. Any thoughts?
as I also have major symptoms of hypoglycemia...depending on what I eat.
coffee and sugar can ruin my whole day, as will drinking alcohol the night before. all moring, and maybe all day I'll be in a dizzy fuz--you know the feeling.
if I don't eat timely, I get it.
hypo. is very hard to diagnosis, but the reality is that most people have symptoms regularlly.
the bottom line is that if I neglect my diet, I've got the problems.
and for me, toast of any kind sends me off the deep end. eggs and veggies are much better.
I wish I never had to eat and could just run on water!
