Hi all,
My wife has Type 1 diabetes (disgnosed 2.5 years ago in her 30s) and when she has a hypo her pupils are different sizes. She also has hypo unawareness so relies on me to tell her when she needs to eat/take action.
Yesterday she very obviously had the issue with her pupils being mismatched and I urged her to eat/put some sugar in her coffee but she was adamant she was fine and tested her blood sugar levels which were good (7.7 I think). She was also not 'acting' hypo and we had had a big lunch only a few hours previously.
Does anyone else have this issue and is there an explanation for having hypo symptoms whilst sugar levels are OK?
Sorry if question is basic, it's my first post (I did do a search first).
Thanks,
Max
