Message: <blockquote data-quote="fatty28uk" data-source="post: 381812" data-attributes="member: 70243"><p>My sugar levels are normally high. Anything up to around the 20 mark and I feel great. Over that and I start to feel very thirsty to the point where it becomes all consuming. A low for me is anything under 5. If caught out without any means to lift it, I get very agitated, panicky and a little violent. I get very confused and would find it almost impossible to answer even a simple question. My legs get very hot and sweaty and then all I want to do is lay down before I fall down and pass out. Because of this and how I can have a bad low out of the blue, I tend to never go out alone, and never have done since having a bad experience where I tried to have a fist fight with a double decker bus. Anybody witnessing this would have wrongly assumed that I was drunk. Since starting a lower carb diet things have improved, but as I cannot take the insulin down till the sugar levels drop, hypos are always very close.</p></blockquote><p></p>
