Another advantage to being diabetic, if you break down, the AA get to you a lot quicker!!

Caffeine withdrawal symptoms? Just a thought, but cutting out caffeine wich is fairly high in chocolate can cause horrible symptoms. With those readings, I wouldn't have thought diabetes was the cause.

My hypo warning symptoms change every so often, they come in 'batches'. After diagnoses and for a few years after, I got the text book, shakes, sweats, hunger etc. Around the time of my pregnancies (1st 3 ended in miscarriage), I lost all hypo warning signs. In hospital, after the first loss...

Thanks for the advice guys, I am seeing the doctor tomorrow. I guess I just felt I needed 'permission' to seek yet another appointment as I live in fear of the 'raised eyebrows' and feeling like a timewaster. Pathetic, I know.
