What Causes Severe Fatigue After Having Food?
For the past few months After I eat right away I have a weird feeling all over and have major fatigue, sometimes clamy. It lasts for a few hours. It was not at every meal but the last week or so it seems to be more frequent..I did buy a glucometer to check my sugar a few days ago..Should I check it after fasting for 8 hours in the morning and also after Ineat and feel bad? My last bloodwork was Feb 2015 and my A1c was .5.9.. thank you

Hello,
Eating causes blood sugar to rise, and a dip in energy may follow.
Other factors can contribute to tiredness after eating such as poor sleep at night.
I suggest having a healthy lifestyle.
I also suggest measuring regularly blood sugar.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
