That’s interesting because it seems low glucose would trigger a seizure not the other way around. I’ve had terrible headaches from low glucose and I always carry a remedy with me when I go out. I also bring protein to eat at the same time to prevent too much of a spike. I have to eat some every 2 hours or I start to wane fast. I’ve also have had a super fast metabolism and always been thin. I’ve been on an eeg many times and never had a seizure while on it. I have enough injury records after falling blackouts to document them though. My doctors have said they don’t know of a correlation between seizures and protein but it’s always been that way for me

My wife has been a type 1 diabetic for more than 60 years, she can feel her glucose levels getting low and has been able to avoid diabetic seizures. That wasn't the case when she was younger. Have you considered getting a continuous glucose monitor to alert you to low levels?

I had a super fast metabolism when I was younger, weighed 116 pounds when I was 20. I could eat an entire large pizza or 1/2 pound of pasta and not gain a pound. I sure miss those days.
