Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I have this too when under stress HOWEVER medically it is due to sudden drops in blood sugar and when I've gone too long without food, over 3 hrs. It's far too easy to sometimes blame the MIND when it could be a physical issue.

Having dealt with major PTSD issues I am not in any way trying to lessen any PTS issues here, it's just sometimes, like my supposed 'depression' that everyone thought I had that wow! suddenly went away when the blood work showed the huge drop in testosterone and I received treatment for that..the so called depression went away..a lot of times there ARE physical issues at hand which the STRESS increases.

So don't downplay that part of it. ASK for a complete blood panel, check your blood sugar when this is going on. There can be OTHER reasons that this is going on in addition to the emotional issues.

If I wasn't so badly against anti-depressants and refused to be put on them we might not have found this information out from a simple blood test, extensive, but simple.

About the sugar level. You can get shakes with hypoglycemia--low blood sugar. Now, even if your blood sugar level is fine with regular panels, you can't say whether you actually have hypoglycemic symptoms unless you check your blood sugar level during an episode. So, if you get the shakes either after an hour or so after carb intake, or when you feel hungry (hunger also is sometimes a symptom of hypoglycemia) you need to check your blood sugar at that timing.
Just a thought here after reading BreeChick's post.

Hope you get to the bottom of this soon, MsVickie. (((((HUGS)))))
