I must admit that I'm not feeling completely fine today...feeling shaking and just not 'right.'

The popping in the ear (yes, only one) being an indication of raised blood pressure is probably why my dh thought it was my blood pressure. I have not heard that. hhhmmm so I guess it might have been my blood pressure.

This woe DOES stabalize blood sugar levels....the problem is that if you eat something with sugars - or wait so long between meals - that you can suffer the symptoms again. It's called reactive hypoglycemia - your body is reacting to your diet with low blood sugar.

The correlation to diabetes is that after having low blood sugar for so long and your body's insulin responses wearing out, it can turn into high blood sugar - diabetes - because your body can't control the insulin any more. I'm not an expert...but I think I explained that right.
