Hello! For a long time I have been observing symptoms such as: boredom, dizziness, sleepiness (I sleep about 11 or 10 hours during the holidays, and still feel the need to sleep), ravenous appetite, nervousness, apathy (I am a slim high school student practicing daily gymnastics, I spend time in the fresh air, I eat he althily as much as possible). When I read about hypoglycemia, I drank a glass of orange juice and felt better. The sleepiness is gone, the energy is back. Could it be hypoglycemia? If not, what? It lasts for a long time, it is not a temporary fatigue, I do not work during summer holidays. Please reply thanks. Ola (regular reader)

To be sure, perform a 75 g glucose loading curve, the so-called extended. Some of your symptoms may suggest reactive hypoglycemia, which should be treated with an appropriate diet.
