Default feeling ill but blood sugars look good

Hello All,

I am a newbie to this forum. I've been doing the LC thing for about a month now and stuck to it pretty faithfully. I feel very sick when I eat beans including soy, corn, rice, gluten, and pretty much all grains. It also aggravates my fibromyalgia.

This last week I have been struggling with feeling like my blood sugars are low. I feel shaky, dizzy, nauseated, and fatigued. I have a CBG machine at home even though I am not diabetic. I have found that when I feel this way I tend to have a blood glucose level of 81-89, which is considered normal. I am never high in the morning and never too high after a meal, yet I feel like crap anyway. Taking some glucose tabs helps, but it will just come back again later. I don't get it and am confused about what to do. I don't want to up my carbs too much (which I don't track, but keep around 30-40) because I know my carb cravings will come back.

Ideas?
