[QUOTE="ann34+, post: 813967, member: 94348"] Hi, Tim, the whole area is very controversial at present, esp re the published studies, see below most are related to type 2, there are a lot i may not have included, and the one or two which have looked at type one do not find the same problem, but very recently there have been studies on type one women showing they have a relatively higher risk of CVD than Type one men. (ie, they still have a lower risk in numbers but relative to the general pop they have a higher risk). It seems clear that hypos are not good re CVD for Type 2, but until recently little was done on Type 1. My consultant may well be wrong but he is in a major teaching hospital and i imagine must know something of the ongoing research. i have no eye or kidney problems at all - so CHD and stroke is seen as a poss potential prob and the recent report from Paris showed that 61 yr plus Type one women were more likely, over a year, to have a major hypo event leading to seizure, heart attack, or death than other groups of type ones. I do not by any means do everything my consultants say, but my own experience has shown that i just do not recover from a fairly minor hypo as i used to - and it is possible that my older brain just cant jump back - after even a relatively simple - or what i would have called a simple one years ago - hypo i can take days to feel normal. If i could have seen these studies, and the explanations of what a hypo does, years ago, i would have tried even harder to avoid hypos, but at the time i was told, rather abruptly, that i was well controlled and unfortunately that was how things were...as the consultant saying this was very senior i recall i was pretty shattered at the time, feeling there was no way out - there wasn't really, as we only got 4 strips a day.
