[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 409735, member: 8110"] hypos at 3, if not still falling are not dangerous. That's only where a hungry non-diabetic would be. However, if you feel hypo then you ARE! what medics sometimes don't understand is that you can FEEL hypo at any level that seems normal to them if you are accustomed to a high blood glucose level. Certainly 1 can be dangerous and should be corrected. My T1 husband had a hypo of 1 some weeks ago and I couldn't get the BG to come up. I called paramedics who had the necessary stuff. I now have a box of glucose powder and one of those syringes, without a needle!, for giving medicine to children and can make a concentrated solution and give it.by mouth. According to my vet brother. giving glucose by mouth works faster than glucagon and probably faster even than IV [ He's treated MANY diabetics with 4 legs!] Hana [/QUOTE]
