Hey Snodger, Yes absolutely! Sometimes in those hypos I have music on and it's just clearly the most amazing, moving, profound sound I've ever heard. I've never done drugs, but I can imagine that these hypos are analogous to a drugs trip. They're great, until the sugar-induced come-down! :D

Hi guys, First post here. My name's Luke, I'm a 28 year old, and I've been diabetic since I was 18 months old, so have never known life without it. Having been diabetic for so long, I admit I often think I know it all, but there is something that I wonder about, and wonder if other Type I's out...
