[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 780006, member: 101136"] Hi, I was in a diabetes check up a couple of months back & dropped to a similar mark on the meter. I thought I could "blag" it for a few more minutes intill I got out the door..? I stopped the conversation & laid into what I had in my bag. Testing while I ate. The nurse mentioned I "looked a little bored." You may find you didn't act as strange as you might have thought? ;) The point is, during/detecting a hypo you gotta do what you gotta do.. Do mention to your counceller what happened in the session & maybe organise a "code" with her in case it happens again? Maybe the "code" could be "I'm hypo"? As long as you have the means to treat the low your councellor can step out the room in the meantime while you comfortably treat it..? Maybe show your initial post on here to the councillor..
