Hands shaking but fine after meal?

[gemloving]

This happened twice at work now. My hands were shaking and I didn't feel well. Heart was racing and shaking hands but had lunch and my daily vitamin berroca and I was fine.

What causes this?

Low blood sugar?

Hypoglycemia? Worth getting checked out if it happens again.

Worth having your thyroid checked too.

I get this if I have sugary stuff and/or not enough protein.

What are you eating before then?

Suspect low blood sugar, I'm a T1 diabetic and hands shaking is one of my first symptoms of hypoglycaemia

You should get checked out (could be reactive hypoglycaemia)

It could be low blood sugar. @SuperSocks I am actually seeing my GP tomorrow morning & I'll mention that.

@PickAChew I have porridge with honey and nuts at around 8, coffee after. It was quite stressful so didn't eat until 01:30pm.

Sounds like hypoglycaemia to me, worth getting your bloods checked whilst you're at the doctors.

@gemloving What did the doc say? Hope you're being taken seriously.

I've had this since my teens. It's related to blood sugar for me.

@SuperSocks he didn't seem too interested given that it's only happened twice.

I had very low iron two weeks ago (7) and now awake in the middle of the night because I'm dizzy and my hands are so numb.

I have no clue what's going on with my body but it's all very exhausting

Give up caffeine for a while.

It happens to me often - usually after bingeing on sugar, and then cutting back. Eating something, especially protein helps a lot.
