    Hello fellow dodgy-tummy sufferers!

    I have IBS which was triggered by severe food poisoning/gastro about 3 years ago. It's not too severe, eating greasy or fried foods often makes it worse. If i eat fairly healthily then I can control it. I tend to get very bloated after any large amount of food. This is irritating.

    However, this post seems so apt, as this morning I had a severe drop in blood sugar. This has happened to me about 10-15 times over the last 6 years. I eat breakfast, then a few hours later, I start feeling sick and weak, which escalates into feeling faint and shivery. I ate a biscuit and within 5 minutes felt slightly better. I have done some research on this and think I may have reactive hypoglycemia.

    Do you think these two things could be linked? advice?

    Fructose Malabsorption is definitely linked to hypogycemia, and I would think IBS has a link too because IBS is an inability to absorb sugars. I find if I don't have a light snack between meals I get very weak, tired and moody :P
