[QUOTE="IBEX82, post: 2608360, member: 510042"] T2 without any blood glucose lowering medication can’t really get hypos. And at 4.8, even with someone taking insulin, this wouldn’t be a hypo either. Below 4 mmol/l is generally considered a hypo for those taking blood glucose lowering medication. Although, I like to be a little higher than (higher than 4-5) this going to bed to prevent overnight hypos but I’m taking insulin. What more than likely happened is a ‘false hypo’ - basically just your body is used to operating at a much higher sugar level and it throws a bit of a fit when it was lower than it’s used to. As a non medicated diabetic, more 4s and 5s you can achieve, the better. [/QUOTE]
