I have been asked to comment about a young mother's breastfeeding
experience.  It seems she suffers with severe hypoglycemia, stating that
she felt almost incapable of functioning during the entire three months
that she nursed. Despite visits with dieticians and physicians her symptoms
did not improve.  She states that within one week of weaning at three
months she felt "back to normal".

Anyone have experience with this condition?
