Friday, I took Noelle into the doctor because of some suspicious behavior that she has been exhibiting. She has been having sudden behavior changes that I viewed as more and different than just a normal temper tantrum. This behavior would be instantly turned off once a snack was given. The doctor diagnosed her as hypoglycemic (low blood sugar) from what I told her and Noelle has to go in for a more in depth glucose tolerance test. Poor Noelle will have to sit for about three hours in the hospital waiting room and have multiple blood samples taken. We are going to attempt his very fun test next Saturday.
It's not that big of a deal. It just requires me to adjust her diet a bit so that her intake has more fiber, fruits, vegetables, and complete lean proteins. Frequent snacks and smaller more frequent meals will also help.
Wish us luck with managing this!
