Dawn

this is reactive hypoglycemia, which I think is due to hyperinsulemia. I think the mercury has messed up the signals to the pancreas, which then produces too much insulin, which brings down blood sugar too low, and you feel hungry an hour or two after eating. If you don't eat anything, the blood sugar will eventually correct itself, but it basically means feeling hungry a lot of the time, or eating very frequently. This happens to me at nighttime a lot, and it means I get very little sleep, as I can't sleep when I'm hungry or have low blood sugar. I don't know what to do about it. This symptoms has got much worse for me after amalgam removal as well - had mine out 2 months ago. I am hoping that it is because mercury levels are generally higher as the body is mobilizing it and excreting it, and that this will eventually resolve itself. I HOPE. Yesterday I was so fed up with it I started a low dose of DSMA (6mg every four hours) to try and ease symptoms a bit. Not feeling any different yet though.
