Yesterday tea time I began to feel odd, tingly hands , face slightly heady.First time I'd felt like this.Tested bs and it was 4..Also a new low for me.Generally I average out about 7.5 I began to feel tired, had to sit down and was given some coke. Over a period of 20 mins I went from feeling odd to finding it difficult not to just drift away from everything going on.An ambulance was called, off I went to A & E.All blood tests etc were OK, bs was up to 14, heart ok and then I'm told...... a bs of 4 is normal so it can't have been a hypo;are you under stress at the moment;perhaps things have got on top of you?
Began to get back into the land of the living about an hour later.
I was told by my GP not to drive if my bs went below 5 in case I had a hypo, so I automatically assumed that feeling odd + a lowest ever level of 4 was a hypo.Am I wrong?I have never felt like this before ever.OK I take medicine for depression but I take it so I don't get depressed and that wasn't how I felt anyway.
I was frightened as I had no idea what was happening to me and now don't know what to think...any thoughts from anyone?
