Just recently I have begun to get very, very grumpy when I don't eat....?

Question

is this possibly hypoglycemia? It is terrible....I'm one of those people on the run and often forget to eat. Within the last month or so....I get down right nasty with people when I haven't eaten. It's weird! Any ideas?

I have always skipped meals and it hasn't been a problem in the past. This has come on rather suddenly. I am 99% sure that I am not pregnant.

Answer 1

It could be due to many factors such as Diabetes,changing hormone levels, mental and physical stress, emotional disturbances in family or work place. You could be hyper anxious about a certain project or a near and dear one.Depression is a major cause for such eating habits. Better if you investigate your self for diabetes and other pathological changes in your body and then address the issue.

Answer 2

This happens to me, too. I just got a new job last week, and I'm trying desparately to remember to eat so I don't get the reputation of being a bi+ch again at this new place. They make little glucose tablets you can carry in your pocket. They really help if you feel the cranky coming on. I work at an animal hospital, so sometimes I drink about 5 cc of 50% dextrose solution to help get me through until I can get a bit to eat. I think it is just getting older, stress, and all of that. I wouldn't worry too much, as long as you're aware of it. I actually passed out at work about 3 months ago from hypoglycemia. So don't forget to eat!

Answer 3

By any chance would you be pregnant? The best thing to do would be to go to your family physician, as it could be something serious like diabetes. I'm not trying to scare you, but we have to take care of ourselves.

Answer 4
