[QUOTE="lukkymik, post: 406479, member: 50641"] Thanks to our (rescued) Cocker Spanial Leisha I have been prevented from having 2 Hypos. As i'm lucky enough to have Never had a full blown hypo in 13 years I did however have a critical drop from 10.6 > 4.1 in under 4 hrs the day after I had my insulin changed to Humulon3. Leisha was apparantly running from me to my wife and back and "Meeping" at Annie. My wife is partially disabled and tried calling me, rang my mobile and eventually had to get up and find me .... Out for count on bed in spare room with Leisha sat on my chest licking my face trying to wake me up. We discussed this with the Diabetic team who told us that some dogs are just good at sensing this. I did say 2 stopped Hypos didnt I?? Thats because she's just done it again an hour ago ie 2.30am 21/07/13. I've not felt great for 36hrs or so .... Bloods OKish but just knackered/lifeless which I put down to the heat but I guess an early tea and falling asleep about 9pm meant I missed eating supper and my BS was down to 4.8 which though not a hypo is, for me, much too low!!! 10ish after supper @ bedtime = 5.5 - 6 fasting am test so 4.8 @ 2.30am could have led to ????? Its now 3.30 & my bloods are up to 8.2 thanks to Lucozade and Mcvities Digestives..... Once again thanks LeeLee for looking after me!!!!!!!! ps Ive now got a little Spaniel lying at my shoulder and a huge 90+ llb Lab across my legs!!!
