My youngest daughter is type 1 diabetic, diagnosed July 2016. Recently I decided to do a sort of home glucose tolerance test on myself to get a baseline on how a healthy person reacts to glucose. I drank 60g carbs worth of glucojuice and my too reading over the next 2hrs, I topped out at 12mmol and it came back down over the next couple of hours. Just now I ate a cookie and after a while started to feel really odd, thirsty, needing the loo lots and headache, I decided to test again, 10.8mmol and half an hour later 12.1mmol another half an hour 9.8mmol. I'm 27, healthy, slim/athletic build... last week someone asked if I lost weight too.
Am I right to be concerned? My daughter's dad is T1 but is there a chance I could be too!? I'm honestly terrified
