Not sure about the heart thing..but within a few hours of eating sugar or high carb junk..I get so tired I can't keep my eyes open and my depression (for which I took meds before low-carb..and have been off them ever sonce!) comes right back! For me..I assume my body is so clean of these foods..that whe I stick them back in..my body reacts with a vengence. Only way I got over those symproms..was 1-2 days back re-inducting..then they go right away.

I realized recently that I can't take anything that has pseudoephedrine (sp?) in it, my heart feels like it's racing and chest pains, and it also will make my blood pressure spike.

Are you taking any OTC or prescription meds that could be giving you bad side effects?
