Yuk!!!! I don't think my cats would be impressed if I stole their food......i can recover on half a jelly baby followed within an hour by a banana - so sugar sensitive!!I remember a few years back I got up with very low suger level. I had half a box of cat munchies dipped in jam. I would not recommend it to anyone so now I use Gluco Tabs far less fishy.
Yes I have seen these! I do believe for some people like ourselves that liquid works faster.I use liquid glucose prescribed by my GP it works much quicker than tablets.
I personally haven't no. I don't like Dextrose, I prefer Gluco Tabs ( sold in Boots) less chalky.Has anyone used the Dextrose 'Sport Nutrition' Tablets? I just noticed them in a local store yesterday.
I agree. A hypo for me is the perfect excuse to have something that's normally forbidden!I think that one of the most important things is to have something we like when hypo. If a person was to offer me coke when hypo they would get an argument or indeed anything that was a sugary cold drink. Purely because I dislike them. Same with even chocolate or sweets. It wouldn't matter. I know once I even refused a creme egg!
Oh god yes Hypostop! Like you said it does the job but :***:. Didn't realise they still did a hypostop actually, I haven't had it for over 10 years now.I'm easy, so anything sweet for me - but it may as well be something you like so I usually go for chocolate, Years ago I used to have dextrosol tablets, absolutely awful. I used to find half eaten packets in my coat pockets with the tablets stuck together. I also get dextrose gel from the docs - it used to be called hypostop but the pharmacy just gives me any generic brand now, It looks like and has the consistency of wallpaper paste and again tastes awful - but it does the job.
