I was hospitalized after an extreme hypoglycemic incident last Friday. It occurred a few minutes after dosing 13 units of Toujeo and quickly led to unconsciousness. we're not sure how long I was out but my Apple watch showed little/no movement for around an hour. When I was up I had no idea where I was (or WHO I was!) My wife found me standing in our kids bathroom with puddles of sweat around me. Needless to say, the whole experience was terrifying.
Doctors are baffled, said I'd need 7-10 times that dose to achieve that result and would have been easily noticed. They don't believe the solution became concentrated either since the new formulas prevent that (or DO they.) At any rate, I'm saving the pen for analysis if needed and getting a CGM!
Some background on me: I was diagnosed LADA 5 years ago and was diet/exercise controlled till last December when I began using Toujeo. I'm very fit and eat a low carb balanced diet. My previous levels have been between 80-110 mg/dl on a regular basis (for most of the past year.)
Anyone with similar experiences or insight I'd love to hear from you. Thanks from a now extremely paranoid type 1.5
