[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1604255, member: 53162"] Hey [USER=206809]@Soapybubs87[/USER] that sounds pretty scary, it was wise to call the paramedics to be on the safe side. We have had a member report recently that she get's leg shakes for a few days after her hypo, there are many side effects to having hypos, my only thought is that the brain is being starved of glucose and so from that point of view the effects can be similar to that of having a stroke. The worst symptoms I get are when I sweat and shake profusely and I seem to lose quite alot of mental capacity to do anything so have to lie down for about 30 minutes, sometimes I have even fallen asleep from the drain of it, however that's been rare, I am on a pump now so hypos are far less severe and less frequent too. Perhaps this could be a discussion for you to have with your nurse and see if a pump would be a good option for you ? [/QUOTE]
