Low

[Twisterr]

Hi I was wondering what is lowest you guys have been and have you been hospitalised

 

[Twisterr]

Lowest i have been is a 2.9

1.1 and I was a mess but not hospitalised, was hospitalised when I passed out from low blood glucose about 10 years ago but no idea what the figure was.

It was somewhere in the 1's, possibly I.8mm but I don't remember the exact number as it was a long time ago. I've never been hospitalised due to low bg or had any third party assistance, more through luck than anything else.

The lowest reading I have ever seen on my meter is 1.9. That's a flat out emergency.

However I've never been hospitalised for a hypo unless I've actually lost consciousness, and I wouldn't see any need for hospitalisation otherwise.

Edit: actually I have once or twice also seen "LO" on a meter. But that may in part have been a sample size error.

My lowest was 2.6 and it was vile. No hospital though. Just lucazade and food

I've had a LO on the meter once. 15 minutes later I had raised it to 1.9

Thankfully I wasn't hospitalised. In fact I was completely "fine". I was walking the dog and I managed to get some lucozade and calmly make my way home.

I phoned a friend while it was happening so that some one knew where I was if things went downhill. Just in case!

I think I've posted pictures of a 1.7 or 1.8 on twitter before now.
Didn't need hospital treatment, just glucose tabs. I did feel awful at the time and for quite a while afterwards.

1.8 for me too. Never been hospitalised except on diagnosis. X

1.2 I think has been my lowest, but that was back in the days that I had no hypo awareness at all.
