[QUOTE="Kazzabling, post: 2275023, member: 514965"] Hello, im sorry to hear about your tirednes concerns, i too would like to have a bit more energy ! I have been Type 1 for 38 years also have underactive thryroid but on the correct dose of Thyroxin and i get underlying tiredness thesedays ( not exhaustion ) more so as i have got older say in the last 10 years ( im now 50) . I am a Libre user thesedays with pretty steady control with the odd blip like most of us get. Since ive been on tbe Libre ive found out i can get hypos for over 2 hours whilst asleep and not wake up. I dont go unconscious tk goodness or wake up a particularly shaking mess lol but its worth bearing in mind that if you get any hypos at night that they might have gone one for a long time and make you feel tired in the day. I had one for over 2 hours last night and feel more tired today. Its hard for me to trouble shoot as i was having to change my long acting insulin a couple times a month due to changes in my overnight glucose readings but now i can be tweeking my dose every few days sadly. To illustrate i had a low one night recently so i reduced my long acting by 1 unit the following night. The following night they ran high ! Im sure a lot of diabetics will agree that this is when diabetes has a mind of its own and and does your head in slightly lol.
