I am totally hydrated. Skin is not dry at all. My blood pressure is 122/61. My SpO2 is 97%. My body temp is 98.4F. My blood glucose is 75 mg/dL. My blood ketones are 2.3 mmol/L.
This is the best blood glucose / blood ketones I’ve had yet I feel this subtle dizziness I don’t understand. Any ideas what it might be? Before in the past it was low blood pressure due to dehydration… but I don’t have that now (I’ve had it as low as 80/50 before due to keto + diuretic drug, which I’m no longer on).
Could it be that my brain is not used to running of a higher percentage of ketones than before? Since I am in more of a higher state of nutritional ketosis I imagine my brain is running more off ketones than before. I’lve been at this level of ketosis before but never with blood glucose down near 75 mg/dL. (I’m type 2 diabetic).
I’ve been eatng about 60g protein and 15g net carbs every day for past 4 days. Plenty of fat. At least 80% fat.
Btw, it doesn’t feel like a false hypo that sometimes diabetics get. No shakiness or claminess…
I took a hydrocodone about 2 1/2 hours ago and I don’t usually ever get dizzy from that at all… but maybe that drug mixed with high level of nutritional ketosis could cause dizziness?
