    By the way, low blood sugar does not automatically mean suffering

    a hypoglycemia attack. I measured my blood sugar after my low carb
    half marathon, just for the kicks, it was 59, which was rather
    low. And yet. I was fine.

    Or so you thought anyway. Some people just cant tell when it happens
    (and I'm not saying thats the case with you), while I am
    ultra-sensitive to most things (I'll find out soon whether or not thats
    the case with blood sugar!). My mother is diabetic. One time I called
    her up and she was obviously not well, she was confused, and not making
    any sense at all. She insisted that she was fine, but I called an
    ambulance because I was afraid she had had another stroke. When they
    arrived she tried to beat the paramedics off with her cane, insisting
    that nothing was wrong. They took her to the hospital and tested her-
    her glood glucose was in the mid-30', she hadnt eaten or taken her
    medicine, and she probably would have been unconcious (or worse)
    shortly if I hadnt called.
