Hi

I had a Blood sugar level of 16 at Christmas time and have been working hard to reduce it by exercising and a low carb diet.

As of 10 minutes ago it was 6.1, and it hovers between 6 and 8 depending on when i measure.

I've noticed a couple of times when it is 6 rather than 8, I feel tired and have periods of feeling clammy/sweaty.

Is this something that others have noticed and is it anything to worry about. I had my blood taken yesterday and have a dr calling me to discuss all my meds on Monday.

Thanks
 
Thanks - I don;t take any medication. I am trying to control it through food alone.

My reading s fluctuate between 6 and 8 and i wonder if when it drops from 8 to 6 thats when i feel rough.
