I don't tend to get overnight hypos, I maybe dip into the 3s slightly but not for long but last night was awful. Il start with my day as I believe this has caused it.
I woke yesterday morning at 7.30 to go out on the bike at 8.30. I had my morning levemir minus a couple of shots with going out.
I was out for around 4 hours doing 60 miles with a friend. Bloods fine whilst out continuing to eat every hour and have jelly babies every half hour like I normally do.
Home around 1 and had chicken and chorizo pasta for dinner. I didn't take insulin for this
Afternoon was fine as I didn't eat or didn't have any issues when relaxing.
I get to tea time and have a fry up, I took 6 shots as I believe it was just over but I also had some chocolate for afters so I believed that would take me well past the number of shots I'd had.
Anyway I went to bed on 6.9 around 10pm but woke up at 12.30 at 2.2, my body shaking and dripping with sweat. I got to the kitchen and had a couple of jelly babies followed by a jam sandwich and a bag of crisps. A little too much for a hypo but I was plummeting so jusy over ate
My bloods during the night then went up to around 15 but I have woke this morning at 4.7 and dropping still.
I generally go out on the bike 3 times a week but do around 30-40 miles each time, I never have any issues and I have similar days to what I had yesterday in terms of eating and my bloods are always fine. I just can't believe how rapid my bloods dropped over a 2 and half hour period. I'd had tea at 7.30 so would of expected to have been lower at 10 if I had issues.
Il take this as a learning curve for next time I'm out, I can't believe how that extra 20 miles has affected me. Iv had to take the day off work today as I have a thumping headache and just feel so grotty
Does anyone else have times like this? Especially anyone who does alot of exercise
