[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Call your pediatrician to check for diabetes.  Blood sugar changes can really make you crazy.  But if she's not diabetic, then ask your pediatrician for a referral for a psychologist.  Or just start calling a psychologist for an appointment tomorrow, .[/quote]

DP. Seconding this. Our kid was SO angry and irrational in the days before she was diagnosed/ started getting insulin. I was 100% certain that she had a very serious mental illness, because that's *exactly* how it presented. Turns out her blood sugar was sky high. Rage is a known side effect: https://www.healthyplace.com/diabetes/mental-health/diabetic-rage-can-diabetes-cause-aggressive-behavior
The fact that this is happening soon after sugar consumption feels like a potential red flag? And yes, type 1 diabetes can/does develop suddenly and out-of-the-blue in otherwise very healthy kids without family history (and it's quite dangerous if left untreated).

Whatever is going on, I wish you and her luck.
