[QUOTE="Charles Robin, post: 882303, member: 92241"] Hi Kirstie, it's a good idea to wait for a few minutes, as it does take time to recover. The bad news is, often someone having a hypo won't agree with this. In the past, I have been extremely frustrated when my wife made me sit down on a bench for 10 minutes after eating glucose tablets. I thought it was entirely unnecessary. Once my blood sugars rose and I could think clearly, I understood that it really was the best thing to do. Sometimes you have to be firm, as mental capacity is often impaired during a hypo. I'm not sure why, but the worse it is, the more certain a lot of us are that we are fine. [/QUOTE]
