Hi sandy, first off those numbers are great. From the symptoms you described I would think it is just your body getting used to your new routine, the new diet, exercise and most importantly lower/normal bg levels. Keep up the good work, however if symptoms do persist/worsen seek gp advice.

If your bg has been running high for a long time and you start to control your diabetes you can experience False Hypo's, this is just your body adapting to the lower levels and the symptoms should pass over soon, if your unsure then go and get a check-up at your doctors.
