[QUOTE="Michelle6557, post: 1696459, member: 188099"] I’ve just had my first ever hypo and I’m alone in a hotel room. Typical eh?! I am type 1. Have a slow burn version which means I spent 2 years diet-controlled before being put on Abasaglar basal insulin in Oct. Still no bolus but I’m low carb, so doctor thinks I might avoid much bolus. I only ate a salad for dinner - but that’s not unusual. I do normally snack during the evening and haven’t tonight as I’m away with Work. Took my absaglar and an hour later, dripping with sweat, cold and shaking. I knew something was wrong and took BS reading. Was horrified to see 2.3 The nice receptionist brought me some coke and chocolate which has taken me up to 5.3 within 15 mins. but then back to 4.2 My question is what do I do now? I’ve ordered a white tuna baguette off room service along with a banana and an apple. That’s all they had food-wise at this time of night. I’m scared to go to sleep in case something awful happens to me, but I have a big day at work tomorrow and need to get my head down at some point. Any advice welcome as I’m a bit scared. Thanks a lot [/QUOTE]
