Hypoglycemia symptoms are not at all clear-cut but they can be at the root cause of distressed relationships.
Many people may suffer from one or more hypoglycemia symptoms without realizing it. Often these symptoms are general and can be indicative of other medical conditions, so they are often ignored. Other times, they are treated as individual symptoms: a headache with ibuprofen, fatigue with a cup of coffee, or feelings of anxiety or stress with an alcoholic beverage.
Affect your relationships
But recognizing a combination of these symptoms can lead to the discovery of hypoglycemia in your life. It can affect your relationships at home and at work, without you even realizing the cause. And until you identify it, you will not be able to overcome these signs of low blood sugar and lead a normal, healthy life.
Distressed Relationships
Richard and his wife Sandra have been happily married for 5 years. However, over the last 6 months Richard began suffering from mild headaches and fatigue, but he blamed this on increased working hours. Sandra however, noticed that he was becoming more impatient and often went from a very good mood to a very bad one quite rapidly.
Mood swings
She recalled that somewhere she had read of a connection between low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and emotions. His mood swings were starting to affect their relationship, and Sandra, remembering vaguely about what she had read, suggested that Richard speak to his physician about how he was feeling and explore some possibilities for the cause of his symptoms.
The physician interviewed Richard and suggested that they check his low blood sugar.
Richard followed his physician's advice and as was suspected, hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) was found. Together they discovered that there was a direct correlation between his symptoms and dips in his blood sugar levels.
The Plan
They devised a plan for more regular meals, decreased caffeine intake, and also building snacks into his diet between meals. He was also to continue monitoring his blood sugar to detect any further trends to help regulate his diet.
With the help of his wife, Richard followed this new plan and saw results within a few weeks. He felt more energetic, had no more headaches, and felt much more stable in terms of his emotions.
Although he struggled at first to remain on the plan, by following a regular, healthy diet and omitting the caffeine intake, Richard got his life back on track. He was able to live harmoniously with his wife without the terrible mood swings.
Knowledge is the key to identifying hypoglycemia and it is fortunate Sandra could draw on her reading to point Richard in the right direction before matters became far worse and he developed serious illnesses.
