My husband has been type 1 diabetic for 35 yrs and his control is pretty stable. But over the last six months or so he has begun to have more aggressive / violent hypos during the early hours. This has coincided with him losing over 3 stone in weight and attending the gym for regular excercise sessions. During this time he has reduced his lantus dosage from 40 units at bedtime - 20 units and his novo rapid to an average of 7 - 8 units per meal as he has cut down his dietary intake. One factor we cannot understand is that occasionally after tea meal his blood sugars spike into the high to mid 20s and no extra food has been consumed.
Does anyone have any experience of this any advice greatly appreciated.
