Today, I was sitting in the cafeteria with my friends when I suddenly passed out due to my hypoglycemia. When I woke up, I discovered that I was still in the same spot and my friends had abandoned me to go to class. Also, my stuff was stolen. FML

Are you sure that "friends" is the right word for them?

As if... The effects of hypoglycemia can be averted with proper precautions/maintenance. Anyway, you were lounging smack dab in the blasted cafeteria. Even if this could be the case, at least you know who your real friends were (i.e. none of them), but this entire point is moot since this supposed FML is total bullshit. I might see some sense to it if you were suffering from HYPERglycemia, but how you would confuse the two - since they're polar opposites - is beyond believable. If you're gonna post a fake FML, you could at least understand the physical disability that you're trying to fake first.

Clam down, buddy. (I know what I said) There are hundreds of different ways to explain this. Here are a few. 1) Perhaps she had just arrived, and there was a long line and she was waiting for it to move along. 2) Perhaps she had no money, or lost it. 3) Perhaps she wasn't there to eat, but meeting with someone during a class, for a class. 4) Perhaps she isn't a student. A cleaner, possibly? (It's possible! Right? Right!) 5) Perhaps she already had eaten, but some time earlier and stayed behind late. 5 possibilities. Possibilities is the key word. I'm not saying these are true. I'm just saying that they're possible.

Oh wow. This is totally fake. First of all, if you know you're hypoglycemic then you should also know how to take the proper and simple precautions. Such as eating perhaps? It's not too difficult when you're in a cafeteria. Also, a person doesn't feel perfectly fine and then suddenly faint with no indicators whatsoever, you would've felt uneasy beforehand. Lastly, if you were with your 'friends' they wouldn't have left you there like that, unless there's another definition for friend that I'm unaware of. Hell, even if they did, I highly doubt you were the only people in the cafeteria and I find it very hard to believe that no one in said cafeteria would notice/care. This story, just like most of the stories posted in FML, is a total fake. Out of all the obviously fake ones, this one takes the cake. It is so poorly thought out. YDI, douche.

Is it possible that somebody who passes out from hypoglycemia looks like somebody who is sleeping? If I saw a guy sleeping at his table, I wouldn't think twice unless he was in a really awkward position or has been lying there for an hour.

FYI a person with this disorder doesnt always have to be eating. They can go all day without eating and still be perfectly fine (except for being hungry). What happen is that ones body produces too much insulin randomly and therefore one will be affected. In order for one to pass out, to much insulin would be produced in a short period of time doesnt matter if you are eating the most sugary thing in the world. Some people also do not always show symtoms before it happens. It will come on suddenly. They will wake up eventually because the liver will raise your blood sugar levels. But yea I agree with ya on the 'no one helping her' thing. that is a long stretch there. but now you know

I deel like this is totally plausible and you calling it fake is totally out of line. So dont tell someone else what happened to them because its not your job..

Well, I just found out I also have hypoglycemia, and I had it for about 2 years before it was known....just so everyone knows, you can pass out with NO warning, it sucks. So even when you think you are doing everything right, you can still hit the deck....as for this being real, doubt it, who just walks away from someone who passes out???

Sounds like you pull that stunt a little too often. They probably saw you peeking with one eye.

If you're so affected by this why the hell couldn't you pay attention to it and take care of yourself? This post gives off way too many I-want-attention vibes, YDI

how did you just "wake up" from a hypo? You need to eat something of be given a needle to set off your liver to release stored sugars. I personally think that this one, is a load of shit.

#54 you can wake up from a hypo... your liver has excess glucose stores, sometimes if you're lucky it'll release those and your levels go back up again. OP could have died though.

so NONE OF YOUR FRIENDS had ANY SUGARY SUBSTANCES with them. none at all. and don't tell me you didn't know because there are signs. and you should have noticed them. ydi :l

there ARENT signs with some people. they could be walking and talking then suddenly pass out.

it develops quickly, i know that. the pulse would be rapid, breathing would be shallow. they'd be sweaty, pale, and cold, and they'd be FAINT or UNCONSCIOUS :L headaches, confusion, aggressiveness, trembling, staggering, difficulty speaking are also signs. they're triggered by the lack of glucose, so they will happen :l

That happens for diabetics who are having a hypoglycemic moment, not for people with hypoglycemia. It just hits them then they pass out until their body stablizes and the liver raises the blood sugar level

once again. it depends on how much insulin is being produced in a certain amount of time. If its too much then it doesnt matter if you're eating the most sugery thing in the world.

your body will regulate itself because your liver can raise your blood sugar levels.
