Question
My obese sister-in-law says that she has both diabetes and
hypoglycemia.
Is this possible?
Answer
Yes, in a sense. If she has diabetes and is on medications that might
provoke hypoglycemia, she can have both diabetes (high blood sugar) and treatment-related
hypoglycemia
(low blood sugar). Of course, it is not
desireable to have hypoglycemia, so if it's occurring regularly, her treatment plan
should be revised.
