Most people here are thoroughly bored of my tale of chronic exhaustion and episodes of sweating, flushing and nausea. I've had referrals to cardiology and neurology, as well as my usual rheumy and respirologist. None can explain these symptoms. Meanwhile, I have continued to be convinced that the explanation

I've known something was off because I've been having episodes of hypoglycemia in the middle of the night, so I somewhat expected it, but I'm still scared. Anyone else dealing with this or diabetes? How do you keep from having hypoglycemia overnight?
