Ivan, I am a insulin dependent diabetic. At first I clung on to the false hope that sinemet was causing my sugar to rise. Then my neuroologist told me it was not due to my medication. My sugar rose to 520 and I could harly move from weakness, I also thought I was going blind Io could not see clearly. After insulin my sugar is down to 350. I also have acid reflux which causes me to throw up. At this time my sugar can drop. It has gone down to 40. These are the instructions for a sugar drop given to me by my internist. Eat a half of peanut butter sandwich or drink 1 cup of fruit Juice or two peices of hard candy 0r 1/2 a can of soft drink It works. I can tell my sugar drops because I get shaky, have a headache and become dizzy. I do find a sugar drop increases my tremor. I have a diabetic diet designed by my doctor. The doctor says it will be good for my daughter also. She has low blood sugar. If you need the diet i can e mail it to you. sorry you are going through this. Patricia Hewitt [log in to unmask]
