I always feel okay after correcting a hypo. I dont feel much disturbed. But now i am getting headache for few hours after an hypo. What do people feel usually after a hypo is over?

I have no issues once I've come up from one.. Though, I do tend to feel groggy in the morning if I have treated a night hypo 3 or 4 hours earlier..
I just put that down to sleep pattern disturbance..
 
I usually feel myself picking back up shortly after correcting, concentration quickly comes back ect. But no headaches or pain afraid to say :-S

Wouldn't say I get a head ache, I get more of a hungover feeling, especially after a night hypo.
I don't mind feeling hungover if I've had a fun time but not because my diabetes has!

The headache will depend on how low and how fast you drop, use to get some real bad headaches when I went hypo using animal insulin's, don't get so many now thank goodness.

Yep, that's the puppy.. Like a hangover if I over treated a nighter..
Do you reckon it has something to do with the "liver dump" thing..?
 
I get a horrendous headache right behind the eyes that only shifts with sleep if I have a particularly bad hypo low and fast only had one of these since getting y pump thankfully

I sweated out worst on the old animal insulin hypos, even twitching in a couple of cases.. But never the headaches..

Yeah I would sweat buckets, they came on hard and fast back then Jaylee.
 
The only symptom I've had after is a headache, usually a little nap sorts me out though. Saying that, I've not been lower than 3 yet and hope I never am xx

Sometimes when I have had a hypo I get a hungover feeling too but like most others have said that was after a hypo during the night! Although I had this feeling when I hypo'd at 8am once and then went back to sleep, maybe I should have stayed awake!!
 
I'm generally ok once I come out of a hypo.
Did have one a couple of weeks ago when I had the hungover feeling that others have described.
I reckon I had been low for a while those as I had been sleeping.
