What a "high" feels like

[Lobsang Tsultim]

One indication I haven’t read yet is being licked by a pet… it’s like I suddenly have food flavour covering me! Maybe i start sweating glucose?

Well, that's certainly interesting!

weird pear drop/sugar puff smell on breath and urine … I also get laboured breathing

@chloetaylored , those are typical symptoms of ketocidosis (DKA), which needs hospital treatment.

Please seek medical help when you get those symptoms.

Makes sense to me.
Doesn't work for me though, my idiot dogs always want to lick me regardless of my BG.

Are you ok?
You were doing so well a while back. Anything we can help you with?

Hi, Thankyou no I’m fine, never meant to seek help lol, I know what to do, it’s just that I am not doing it, just need a slap

Slap given.
Do us both a favour and get yourself back on the wagon!

And don't forget this forum can be very useful to vent if you're struggling doing the right things too, we're pretty understanding around here.

T3c here. For me I get really irritable which makes me feel horrible

My symptom of high is what I call psycho hunger . I get it as a ‘punishment’ for eating too many carbs in a meal. It happens an hour after the meal and suddenly I could eat non food I am so desperate. I picture myself chomping into a door frame. It’s the worst feeling for me. I am also tired then and don’t feel like going for a walk but I must go to make the hunger go away. I haven’t had this state fir a while now , since I stuck to 3O g carbohydrates.
