- soaps on telly and people talking about the characters as if they were real.
Usually I know what's going on, but this afternoon, I got a surprise. I was sitting knitting with a dog curled up in my lap and felt all those signs. Shaky, couldn't place the knitting needle, and light headed.
T1 husband is still under the weather, so up in bed and I was alone. I tipped dog onto the floor and went to the kitchen to see what remedy I could find. I had a slice of Real bread with marmalade . After 20 minutes or so I felt better, but I've just checkedd BG, over an hour later, to see how much too far I'd gone. 6.3! Almost in my target zone! I must have gone pretty low. wish I'd checked now, but I was focussed on getting right.
This shouldn't happen on Metformin alone. I had my usual sparse carbs for breakfast and lunch and haven't been particularly active. I have merely potted up 42 begonias.
I have been under a lot of stress lately with T1's condition. Over a week since he had an iron infusion for his anaemia and absolutely NO SIGN of improvement so far. I know it's soon, but I'm feeling the strain a bit. House, garden animals and not much help.
