What Causes Low Blood Sugar Levels Along With Depression And Low Libido?

my boyfriend has a couple of different symptoms. He has a back issue that causes him to be bedridden. I think it may be a herniated disc. he is 37, 6-4, 400+ pounds. his lower back will go out (anything from bowel movement to twisting). The other issues are low blood sugar off and on, low sex drive, some depression and when he eats he immediately becomes exhausted (like has to lay down and sleep)

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your boyfriend is obese. And obesity can cause all these symptoms. So we should first target weight reduction in him. Strict dieting, aerobic exercise like running, cycling and swimming, self motivation, family support etc are needed for weight loss. Don't worry, he will be alright with all these.

Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your boyfriend. Thanks.
