[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1501898, member: 345386"] SockFiddler, there's no way anyone can answer your question, without a test. Hopefully your meter will arrive soon. You've definitely done the right thing to order it. Should the same ting happen again, please do test, then you'll have an insight for yourself. What some newly diagnosed people do find though is that they can experience hypo-like feelings even when their numbers are clinically fine. This tends to happen when they have been running their bloods a bit high (hence the diagnosis), and their body is objecting a bit to them trying to bring their numbers down. Our bodies like to run in a regular range (for lots of things, including blood glucose), s our bodies will either try to compensate for the change, or send out complaining signals (like hypo-like symptoms). These tend to be referred to as false hypos. They're just one of those things some people get. If you have a falso hypo, maybe just try having something like a cup of tea, with milk. That would be enough to buoy up your blood glucose a very small amount and stop your body objecting, then eat your next meal as usual. If we always go straight to the heavy carbs for a false hypo, it can prolong the period of discomfort and bringing our numbers down. [/QUOTE]
