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.

Yeah me too. It caught up with me though as I had a TIA in my eye. Cardio dr said both my carotid arteries to my brain were almost 70% blocked and I went on a statin, aspirin, diet and exercise to avoid stents at 70%. It worked but it took a year to get below 50%. Still have high cholesterol though after all the changes. He said it’s hereditary for me. Sigh. No more mac&cheese, pizza, ice cream etc. Healthy from here on out.

That’s a good suggestion for the glucose monitor. Maybe it’s that. It’s always normal on tests so I never considered it. But I’m looking for an answer and so far none of my doctors have come up with one. Thanks
