low blood glucose

I’m awaiting further testing for. Diabetes and in the meantime I am still monitoring my blood sugars with my agamatrix blood machine which I had during my pregnancy. Today I’ve had two readings below 3.8 and this is once before my evening meal and two hours after my evening meal. I’m awaiting...

Hi there, firstly I apologise if this has been covered in one of your many threads, I have looked but nothing stands out and my GP seemingly knows very little about blood glucose and what is normal. I'm 38, no history of diabetes, I workout 3/4 times a week and I eat healthily most of the time...

My husband has recently been diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes. The doctor has said the carbs that he is eating are making his sugar levels drop very quickly which is giving him very low blood sugars particularly after morning breakfast and before lunch. But I'm having trouble with what to give...

Hello I am new and just after some help and advice. For as long as I can remember (at least 20 years) I have been having episodes where I suddenly get very shakey, flickering in my vision, clammy, feel like I’m going to die etc. I always felt like this was related to food. Recently I purchased...

Evening all Just joined and first time posting on here. I’m a fairly newly diagnosed T1 (within the last 2 years). I require a very low level of background and quick release insulin usually to keep my levels where they need to be. Recently however, I’ve started a new fitness regime and try and...

Long post - skip to the end if you would like (please read if you can) Hello, I’m new to the forum and was hoping to get some advice/comfort/support from anyone who has type 1 or anyone who knows about type 1 and seizures. My mum was diagnosed in October of 2018 (at 47 years old) with Type...

Hi guys, I’ve just joined the forum but have always followed the Facebook page. So for the last 24-36 hours I have had continuous Hypos with my bloods going as low as 1.9. I went to the hospital yesterday after advice from my GP and they done their usual and sent me home. These are the worst...

I have type one diabetes, insulin-dependent for the last 19 years. I am on an insulin pen (had a pump whilst I was a teenager). Usually, my control is pretty good. I have started using the mysugr app which has helped even more. But sometimes it recommends too much or too little insulin which I...

Hi everyone, just would like to hear your thoughts on hypos during pregnancy. I'm type 1 and 28+4 weeks pregnant. I just had a series of lows there in the middle of the night, also before bed, and no matter what I ate they wouldn't go up. Has anyone experienced these stubborn lies that won't go...

Hi there, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes nearly two weeks ago. My HBA1C was 60 but I don't know if that is % or mol. My gp started my on Metformin 500mg twice a day straight away. I have been off work with severe fatigue and exhaustion for the last month. I was also diagnosed the...

I'm type 2 and in week 5 of 800 calories (real food) and my bloods have been normal since week 1, now they are often in the low 4's and a few times have dropped into the high 3's. I've had a lot more energy this week and have been exercising more because of it but I had a pretty extreme energy...

So I recently had a blood test done at the doctors as I have been feeling really tired, nauseous dizzy and shakey for quite some time, this was a random blood test but the doc told me that my hba1c is way lower than it should be and sits at around 2.2 mmol and this is causing the problem but...
