 |  My face gets red?????????
When I'm at work, I'll be fine and then if I eat something, like say 2oz. of Dannon light and Fit yogurt or a couple bites of a protein bar like south beach, my face will get all red for about 45 minutes. It gets hot and I feel fine, but everyone wants to know why my face is red. And you know what, so do I!!
I don't get it? It's cold where I work (the OR) and I don't notice it at home.
The only difference is it takes me so long to eat that I have to get up and go right back to work after I eat whereas at home I can sit and relax.
Is this normal or should I be calling my doc? No one at work (nurses or doctors) seem to have a good reason why.

Don't think so Kath. I do have insulin resistance (PCOS), but that's about it. I was VERY emotional this morning and yesterday, but I'm better today. Also, the scary part is that tuesday and wednesday my face got a lot redder than it did today and I had a MUCH better day at work today. The weird thing is that I never felt light headed or weak. Strange.

I think it could be a form of dumping too. It sounds like the flushing I do with niacin which gets worse if I eat sugar around taking it.

My yogurt only had 5 sugars total and the protein bar only had 3. I didn't finish either of these at one sitting either, so not even that much. Perplexing.

That is intresting... I didn't realize that there could be different forms of dumping but it does stand to reason the each person is different.
