This morning i had a really terrible experience.
i woke up around 6:00 and checked my bg: it was 12,2 mmol.
i decided to take my lantus log term insulin shot of 25 units.
i snoozed my alarm to wake up at 6:58 to wake up with a bg value of 2,2 and a further downward trend. 1 minute later my Libre indicated LOW. I immediately drank 1 liter of fruit juice (69g of carbs). 7:17 still low value and feeling dizzy.
so called an ambulance in case i wouldnt be able to stop the hypo, and then went to the local 24h store to buy 3 bottles of AA drink (14,5g carbs/100ml).
ambulance arrived to monitor me and i drank 2 bottles aa drink. Bg went back above 4,0 at 7:45 without further medical intervention.
i’m not sure if i could have accidentely switched the lantus insulin for novorapid. Or if the lantus can do such crazy stuff. I never had such heavy drops within just one hour. However, Not a nice experience at all.
