[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1570738"] I have certainly experienced those terrible post-hypo headaches. It usually happens after a night time hypo from which I have not woken which means my body has finally has to take over. As [USER=53162]@Juicyj[/USER] mentioned, it is like a really bad hangover ... without the fun the night before. I echo all the comments about working out why your partner is hypoing. Unfortunately, stress is difficult to control but it is unusually for it to lead to hypos - usually stress causes high BG. However, I find hypos come in batches - get one and then I may have a few that week. If he can get a chance to talk to his diabetes team and, perhaps, review his insulin doses - if he is frequently hypoing at night, he may want to reduce his basal dose. Finally, don't forget to look after yourself. The only time my partner had to look after me when I had a severe hypo, he was very shaken by the experience. It was thinking about him that made me pay more attention to my insulin dose. [/QUOTE]
