Brief Answer:
Reactive hypoglycemia possible.

Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.

It is more characteristics in people suffering from diabetes or pre diabetes.
The rise of insulin levels faster than glucose levels. The reason may be unknown.
She should test blood sugar levels fasting and post prandial and HbA1c too.
