Chek Advantage
Hypoglycemia causes seizures please advise me as to glucose readings?
My daughter was having a seizure around the same time of day. each morning around 10 am. Our general practitioner thought it could be hypoglycemia since it was around the same time each day! She was prescribed an Accu-Chek advantage glucose tester.I have read that fast changes in glucose level can also cause one to feel ill. Example of readings are:102mg/dl@6:14pm 113mg/dl @6:15pm 105mg/dl@66:16pm she was feeling like passing out and asked me to take it. She also has change in nail bed color when not feeling well. this was diagnosed as raynauds BUT...she also has tingling in fingers, sometimes dilated eyes, throat describes as lion is biting it.so I assume a squeeze.
