It's happened a few times but normally after an early shift 6am-2pm so it scared me that it happened at work, I'm as low sugar as possible & pretty much only eat porridge & burgen bread, I can't eat carbs at night as for me it's like drinking coffee just before bed, my only friend with type 2 is...

Thanks for all the input! I'm going to see how I go over the next few weeks (as I do have an infection & it could have just been a weird reaction to the antibiotics) I hadn't eaten much due to nausea & ive never had a panic attack, the only medication I take is vitamin D [emoji106] @Brunneria it...

Daibell, I've lost 1 1/2 stone in the last 4 months but still about 3 stone overweight, I'm hoping the change of diet will bring it down.

Thank you both, I've cut out most carbs & having the burgen soya & linseed bread, I've always been a huge carb monster & ate lots of pasta, rice & potatoes, I've not eaten any since I went to the doctors.
