Hi,
i have recently been diagnosed with T2. My GP told me not to worry about a hypo because with T2 it is impossible to have a Hypo? Is that true?
I have what i call a hypo forexample, really busy today and forgot to eat lunch, and had nothing since 7am breakfast. I suddenly became sweaty shaky light headed and fubbling! I still was not actually hungry! BG was 3.5. I found it very hard to get it back up to a reasonable level. I had loads of dextros tablets. A carton of fuit juice and a sandwich. I kept testing every ten minutes as i felt so dreadful and was frightened (3 children in the house) i would pass out.It took about and hour to get up to 5.5.
My question is, every time this happens i get an upset tummy and am in and out the toilet. It also 'writes off the rest of the day as i feel totally exhausted and just need to sleep.
I feel like i have soooooo much to learn and am reading diabetes for dummies but when i apply it to me it doesn't seem to work.
