BEST TIME FOR INSULIN AFTER A HYPO

I have just taken my blood readings and was 3.4. Bit of a surprise, as there were no warning signs. I took 5 jelly babies, waited 10 mins then had my baked potato for tea. After finishing it, I took a slightly lower amount of insulin than usual. Have I done the right thing? Should I have taken the insulin before the potato?
PS sorry about caps.
 
In my opinion i would treat them as 2 separate occasions , incidences , etc etc

you could treat the hypo wait 15 minutes test again and see where you are -- and then eat and inject or.....


if it were me I would have just ignored the 3.7 -- injected and eaten the baked potato
baked potato has a high GI value so you wouldn't have dropped lower
