Thanks. I test my bs regularly through the day. I don’t normally eat bread but had some as my bs drops too much. I also wanted to show my GP that eating extra carbs does not stop bs dropping. Had another hypo today where bs was 5.4 then dropped to 3.3 within 2 hours. It would have dropped...

Thanks

Thanks. I’ve already been to Gp he does not know why it happened and blood tests came back ok. I had another one tonight so will be going back to Gp tomorrow (the Gp I see is the diabetic specialist)

My Gp has no idea?

Nothing out of the ordinary had decent lunch lentil soup and 2 slices toast at 12.40 . I’m an office worker so don’t do loads walking. Was not late from work. On train at 4.55.

What did your Gp say?

I had one just after Christmas went straight to Gp he could not explain why it happened. Blood tests came back ok. The one I had today I’d had lunch at 1240 finished work just before 5. Was on tram home when I felt unwell. Tom bs one stop before mine it was 3.3 and when I got off the tram to go...

I have successfully controlled my type 2 diabetes with diet only over the last year. My die eyes is in remission with readings of those of a none diabetic. However I have had a few hypos where my bs has dropped (quite quickly) to 2.6. This is having eaten normally and without any exercise...

Thanks that’s very helpful

I’ll maybe put an afternoon snack in. I was just a bit freaked out as when discussed on initial diagnosis said as I was not on meds it would not drop!

No I don’t work out. I was on way home from work and felt unwell so checked Bs and no when zi got home. I normally only have salad for lunch but that day had eaten more carb because I had a late meeting. My no was ok but bs was low.

Yes it is my bs are generally in the normal range.

Thanks John I’ve seen this. I’m just failing to understand why the drop and what it means?

Yes thanks will do. It’s just a bit frightening.

It happened again the day after. Saw GP who said eat more carbs (you have to laugh). I’m at diabetic clinic next week so I’ve done a dairy of food and close monitoring

No diet only - low carb

I’d actually had soda bread sandwich. Don’t normally eat that much carb but knew I had a late meeting at work. Ate this around 1.30pm .

3.5 yes so ate and tested 15 mins later and bs had raised. I knew something was wrong which is why I tested.

I was diagnosed with T2 in September. Since then have been managing with diet. I eat very little carbs. Am managing well lost 2.5 stone and bs readings down. Last week I felt unwell and on taking BS it had dropped dramatically to just over 3. No reason as I’m not on medication and had not...
