I get so tired I can hardly function. Breakfast, lunch, supper, with or without alcohol my body just goes limp. My brain shuts down and sometimes I have some pretty weird dreams. The older I get, the more this happens. I love to cook for folks/loved ones and eat too, but I almost don't want to eat anymore because I know after I do I will sleep for a long period of time like I'm drunk.

Diabetes runs in my family. I've been checked in the past and everything was fine. The only thing found was low blood sugar.

After EVERY meal I eat, I get tired. What's going on here? It wasn't that way before.

Alcohol is the devils brew.

It sounds like you just need to keep drinking all of the time and you won’t have any problems!

Can’t help except to say it doesn’t happen to me at all.

A good friend started doing the same thing, and everyone’s first thought was diabetes. He passed all the tests with no indication. Further checking revealed that he had developed a serious gluten intolerance. He and his wife really went to work eliminating gluten based food, while still enjoying the same types of food. Huge improvement and feeling good again!!

My wife has the exact same problem

Sounds like you need to cut all sugar and carbs from your diet. I would go to a ketosis diet and let your energy come from fat vs carbs.

I can say one thing for you. You are not a quitter.

Try a no carb meal....meat, fish only and see what happens.

My son has the same problem Skinner.

Not your beautiful daughter. She is wide awake.

skinner this isnt the right place to ask that question. Go see what the doc has to say -

It is likely that you are eating to many carbs, sugar, and caffeine. Take a couple of days and eat protein, veggies, dairy, and nuts then wash it down with water. I bet you will feel a lot better, side benefit is that you will lose weight also..

Low blood sugar can cause tired and sleepy feelings. Seeing a Dr. for testing would be the right thing to do. Between now and then if you get that feeling consider a drink of fruit juice or a bite of candy then see how you feel 15 minutes later. If better may be an indication of low blood sugar.

I have something called reactive hypoglycemia.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive_hypoglycemia
My A1C tests always come back perfect but I’ve measured my sugar as low as 27 but usually it dips into the 40’s. I can still function (which isn’t normal with BS that low) but I feel off and tired.
Some other things:
Did this start after you gained weight?
Do you only eat large meals?
Do you only eat processed foods when this happens?
We have a “fight or flight” reaction when scared. We also get a “rest and digest” reaction after we eat.
Hope these ideas lead you to the answer you seek. Ultimately, seeing a Dr. and full blood work up should be able to answer your questions.

I get full blood work twice each year. They call me William.

I hope you get it figured out and beat it, Skinner, but that cat saying diabeetus has me rolling.

Seriously, though. Just eat meat and drink water. You’ll be fine.

I believe he says it. But only after he smoked a cigar.

Now everybody knows when your house will be vacant.

You can take that to the bank.

I left the doors unlocked. I'm not afraid because I have a great vicious watch dog.
