Hi, just to comment on the test for "reactive hypoglycemia".

A few years ago my wife was diagnosed as having "reactive hypoglycemia".
The diagnosis was done my a reputable MD (the test was not done by anything
less than a "real" doctor). The test given was called a "glucose tolerance test"
and did not cost very much (something like $40).  Not being a doctor,
I am unaware of the complete use of this test but, my wife did show a
"lower than normal" sugar level in her blood. The symptoms for her were
far from psychosomatic; after digesting a quantity of suger (sucrose)
she would become very enrgetic then after a few hours would be slightly
depressed and moody.
