[QUOTE="byeazucar, post: 2426272, member: 546845"] Hello everyone, First post here so I try to be as good as I can. My wife has Diabetes Type 2, she is on Keto diet for several months and we monitor things pretty close on daily basis. She wears LibreFree2 as well as does a finger test now and then to ensure reads are correct. 95% of the time she is between 4.5 and 7.5 mmol. She only takes Glycozide now and then as she is managing levels very well with diet. However, today her sugar was 7.0mmol after waking up and stayed that way for few hours, which is unusual and did not really follow her daily sugar level patterns (no major changes on diet) so she decided to take a Glycozide tablet (1). Her sugar then dropped drastically to 2.9mmol within 30-45 min. She then had some Keto chocolate and blueberries to try to stabilize it, however, we did not manage to go above 4.0 mmol. After 2 hours we decided to have dinner, expecting levels to go back up. To our surprise, she is still on 3.8mmol (1.5 hours after a meal) and it is concerning me that her sugar levels are not increasing for so many hours despite food intake. Anyone has experienced similar scenarios or can help me bring some light to it? I would not like to go bed with such levels. (I will definitely won't sleep monitoring her) Thank you in advance, [/QUOTE]
