Very helpful, zi appreciate it. I feel hypoglycemic too but my fasting insulin is fine No one wants to do stimulation test, only 2hr glucose was done. Can I ask, do You feel any symptoms about 30min-1hr after eating? I had immense headache from the sugar they provide for 2hr glucose test for a day and I don’t get headaches. I feel worst when eating when not eating.
Thank You,

Your symptoms sound very familiar! My hypoglycemia episodes are more frequently after meals than fasting. I have done more than one 72 hour fast. They don’t always result in hypoglycemia. My presentation actually made diagnosis more difficult as most insulinomas present with fasting hypoglycemia and mine presented as after meals. Do you have a glucose monitor to check when you don’t feel well? When I drop after meals it is 30-45 minutes after I eat. I recommend tracking your symptoms and glucose. Please continue to ask questions. Happy to help. 😊
