[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2336371, member: 451727"] Hi there, pretty much spot on. I'll tell you this, if MY levels were to drop into the low 3s and they often do, I will NOT be relying on my liver to step to my rescue on the basis that 'oh, eventually, probably after several hours unconscious, it'll have done its job'. By which time I imagine it would have dropped into the 1s! I just think even giving the impression this is somehow a solution to a hypo is dangerous, personally. My Consultant said that hypos (prolonged and often) can cause damage to the brain if left untreated and I believe him. x [/QUOTE]
