Strange Diabetic Symptoms

[Eric1357]

I have got this strange symptoms. My blood sugar level is lower after I consume food and higher when my stomach is empty. Is there any problem with me? Normally it should be lower when stomach is empty right?
What causes such symptoms?

Sounds like a good idea, Eric. Only it isn't only sugar you need to control it is all carbohydrates; cut down on things like bread, rice, cereal, pasta and potatoes and eliminate sugar. Reactive glycemia, if that is what you have occurs after high carb meals.

Thanks for the precious information. After some google-ing, I really suspect that I do have hypoglycemia as I have some of its symptoms such as rapid heart rate, trembling and others. To be exact, after consuming food my blood sugar level is around 5 to 5.5 only but when my stomach is empty early in the morning, my blood sugar level is around 7 to 8. I have not consult a doctor yet but I am under going some self control on sugar level as 7-8 is consider diabetic sugar level.

Weird. This normally happens with hypoglycemia, a condition I have. You had best speak to your doctor about this.

That sounds like Reactive Hypoglycemia, which is a condition where people's blood sugar drops after eating a meal high in carbs. You could try eating less carbs and see if it improves or you could visit your doctor.
