Hi all
Has anyone ever had a problem with their reader? Last night before bed I was showing as hypo so I had my lucozade, waited and rechecked. Still hypo despite no symptoms so I had some more lucozade and went to sleep. Woke up 30 minutes later to test and it was 'LO'. Didn't feel low but too scared to sleep so I stayed awake for an hour, and I was still 'LO'. I was 'LO' for 4 hours (having chugged back almost 2L of lucozade at this point but still too scared to sleep as I've suffered a bad night time seizure in the past) but I decided to check with my normal meter as I felt high. A BS of 32.8!!!!! At this point it was still showing 'LO' on the freestyle. Has anyone experienced this?
