[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1098051, member: 30007"] One of the the points that regularly comes up is sensitivity to epinephrine (adrenalin) causing the symptoms to be worse, which would make sense in your case if you lack it naturally. Add to that a lack of epinephrine and as you say, you don't have a good feedback response mechanism to counter regular insulin, let alone excess insulin. The answer to this is always "It depends". One or two readings between 3.5 and 4 per day seems normal. Does that qualify as hypo? Typically for me, anything below 3.5 is what I consider hypo, and that's about twice a month, usually exercise or carb count failure related. I'm not sure what the average is. There are plenty of us that find low carb makes management easier as it reduces the ups and downs that accompany higher carbs and therefore more insulin. [/QUOTE]
