[QUOTE="Riri, post: 362854, member: 32297"] All hospitals in Wales now carry hypo response packs and they all have bottles of glucojuice as the first line hypo treatment. This was partly due to the tragedy in my local hosp where an elderly T1 man died having not been treated correctly after suffering a hypo. They've been frantically overhauling their diabetes education for doctors and nurses and glucojuice, as donnellydogs says, is a measured amount of very fast acting glucose which is why it's favoured over other previous treatments - like a ham sandwich!!!! Yes this is what they offered me when I last had a hypo in there a few years ago. Luckily I had my own supplies to hand. [/QUOTE]
