Hi all,
Does anyone have experience with frequent hypos that don't respond well to sugar for apparently no reason? I'm on a Medtronic 640g pump.
I moved to Fiasp 6 months ago and all was going great until a month ago. Since then I've been on a rollercoaster and haven't been able to get off. I keep having hypos when I don't have any insulin on board. I'm pretty sure it's not basal related as I will put a heavily reduced temporary basal on for 4+ hours and will still be going low. I will treat the hypo, rise and then drop back into another hypo. I think I've been hypo every day for the last 3 weeks at least. I've put on half a stone with the swings and sugar consumption. I changed back to Novorapid yesterday, and there's been enough time for the Fiasp to be completely out of my system but I've still had two hypos this morning. I'm pretty sure it's not gastroparesis because my blood sugar does initially rise when treated and in a timely fashion, just not for long enough!
I haven't changed my general routine or exercise routine at all. I want to up my exercise but this is obviously holding me back. If anyone has any idea as to what is happening I will be very grateful!
