    Advice on exercise and food

    I have this problem regularly. In the end I accepted the slightly higher blood sugars at the start of exercise cause I didn't like taking the extr carbs to prevent hyping during exercise. Would be interested to see what other people do.

    Living without hypo awareness

    Hi Flowerpot, I had islet transplants in sept and nov 2011. I'd been hypo unaware for quite a long time and got the funding for cgm about 6 months before the going on the transplant list. I totally agree a cgm doesn't replace warning signs but it's better than nothing. My hypo signals started...
