[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1498963, member: 94045"] It certainly wasn't a hypo. That is under 4. It sounds like what is known as a false hypo, which is what can happen when your body is still getting used to lower levels. Your body has been used to your "lows" being a lot higher than they are now, so reacts by creating these symptoms. Keep up the low carb and your body will soon adjust. The very LAST thing you should do is treat this by eating sweets or chocolate etc. That will just make your levels rise and will make these false hypos happen more frequently. Allow your body to adjust to having lower levels. A cup of tea would probably have been sufficient, or half a Lidl roll. Don't worry, it won't last long. :) [/QUOTE]
