[QUOTE="tshok, post: 757975, member: 125629"] 1.1 is the lowest i've ever gone...I was still able to treat but weirdly didn't get any of the usual symptoms like the shakes etc (until I tested that is!!)...I was getting this weird thing with my vision (I won't even begin to try and explain it!!) so i tested to be on the safe side..the shock i got when i seen the reading..I whacked down a whole pack of Dextrose and a Nutrigrain and was back to 7.4 20 minutes later (in Boots...safest place i could find nearby!!)..Later on I figured out the reason was a insulin mismatch with meal and exercise (not reducing my dosage and going straight out to walk)..This only happened about 3 weeks ago and considering I was only diagnosed as T1 in November 2014 this scared the living **** out of me..This wasn't an a easily dealt with 3.5 or even my previous lowest of 2.1...I suppose all I can do really is be glad I had this hypo. Finding out what caused it has me made me much more aware of the myriad of factors controlling your BGLs.. [/QUOTE]
