All along, I've been wondering if Lexapro has been messing with my blood sugar. Lately it's been bothering me more than usual. (I feel like I constantly have low blood sugar. Lexapro also does tend to give me mild to moderate diarrhea no matter what I do, which doesn't help things.)
So I will be doing some looking online to see if this is a possible side effect, but if anyone has insight, that would be appreciated.
I will stay on this dosage of 5 mg for a few more weeks, then if I'm still having these blood sugar symptoms, I may ask the doc to decrease it to 2.5 mg and at least give that a try.
Thanks everyone for your answers to me in this thread and others.
