Why?????

I am type two diabetic I was on insulin for 12 years and have now been off insulin for over a year now. I eat 75g of carbs per meal and my sugars are always under 110 two hours after meals. Lately my sugars are going down below 90 just two hours after eating and I'm having low symptoms (headache and dizziness) So I'm having to eat every 2-3 hours. Why is this happening? I eat no sweets I mean NONE so it's not like eating a candy bar and crashing.... please help me understand what is going on with me!!

You were able to get off of insulin after 12 years? How did you do that? You actually eat 75 g of carbs per meal? Did you mean 15 g? How are you doing since your post?
