I was borderline high blood sugar due to low spikes.. since surgery a wk ago I am having low blood sugar issues. It was 59 last time I checked. It was doing this in the hospital and they were giving me something in my iv when it would go low. I worry about this because I have a sensitive stomach to sugar and fear drinking anything. I think Protein might help.. I am trying a EAS right now.. anyone else with this issue, any advice

I've had late stage dumping a few times which is reactive hypoglycemia. Usually two to three hours following eating something I shouldn't have. I can eat almost anything with sugar and symptoms disappear within 20 to 30 minutes. But in my case, I have always been able to identify the food that caused the dumping.

From your description, it sounds like your sugar is low and pretty much stays low. I'd discuss that with your doctor. It's not common but hypoglycemia can be serious and result in loss of consciousness if it gets low enough. I'd check with the big kahuna.
