Hi Danny, I think I caught up with you in another post.
If you have hypoglycaemia then your insulin responses are not 'normal'. That can be improved beyond measure with LC, but the tendency is still there. So if you start to eat high carb again, back you go to being hypoglycaemic.
So - you can 'cure' it with diet, but its a life long issue.

No - it doesn't permanently affect your memory or intelligence (I got my PhD since I became Hypoglyc. ) but it certainly affects both during a hypo. The effect goes once your blood sugar is normal again.

I became hypoglyc. at 20. Other people I know who are (mainly in my family) also got it around the same time.

It used to affect my social life and studies until I got it under control. Then there wasn't a problem, except I controlled it by eating every 2 hours, so I got fat.

Now I have it under control and I've lost weight, by LCing.

LC will fix it, but it may take a few weeks. While you're adjusting, don't fuss too much about carb levels or losing weight (which I seem to remember you weren't trying to anyway), just eat low carb foods and eat when you're hungry - for me, that's still every two hours!

So - no sugar, grains or anything made from them, root veg, beans or peas and not most fruit. Be very careful with alcohol and caffeine.

Eat lots of green veg (apart from peas), salads, meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, nuts.
hard boiled eggs and nuts are good 'snack' foods and quite portable. MacDonald's without the bun and chips are good in a hurry, though you have to buy more than one!
Beer is out ( ) unless you can find the Michelob low carb beer, we don't have it over here. The odd glass of dry wine or whisky is ok usually.

It will sort itself out - honestly, and gradually the way you eat (and don't drink ) becomes normal to you and your mates. Mine now buy me nice cheese instead of cakes at birthdays and are used to me only eating the topping off pizza or the insides of a burger.

Hope you start to feel happier and more in control - all the very best, Jay
