I've known very few people with diabetes so I did not know much about it. My boyfriend has diabetes and I still have confusion on this disorder. I worry about him a lot since he does wrestling and he often has to cut weight. He tries not to eat so much because of it which I understand can be dangerous in his situation. He has run into few incidents where it caused him to pass out. I found when his blood sugar is low, he is unusually hyper and pretty goofy. Though, I carry pieces of candy in my purse when I'm with him for a quick way to raise his blood sugar. I feel like I still don't know everything I should about this disorder though. I'm going to take a class with him about it. In the mean time, I'd like to understand more of the blood sugar levels. When he tests his blood sugar, what number is considered too low? Average? High? Are there any other symptoms I should be aware of? What other reasonable foods and drinks can raise his blood sugar?
