Hiya, I need some advice or ideas as to what is going on the last 7 days or if anyone else has experienced it. Last Tuesday, I had a hypo out of nowhere, hours after my last dose. I treated it with the usual panic of biscuits, juice, etc. but I knew something wasn't right because I lay down waiting for my sugar to return to normal and my heart was pounding like crazy for a long time. A bit later on, I started throwing up the lucozade I was sipping to keep my sugar up while feeling nauseous and unable to eat. (worst thing ever) After I threw up I was fine but my sugars were hovering around 4.2. Then later on they were 16. Almost like the Lucozade took a few hours to hit my system.. which is stupid I know.
The last few days my blood sugars have been higher than usual and I'm seeing highs of 11-14 even though I'm taking a lot of insulin for not particuarly carby food. When I woke up today I was at 9.6 which is high for morning time. I took a few extra units and ate my breakfast, and I went up to 11. Now I am feeling super nauseous and I can feel my sugar dropping but it's not hypo yet. I was 10.2, then 6.8, then 5.4, now 3.8 in a matter of 25 minutes. I feel too sick to eat so I'm sipping Lucozade slowly but I don't know what is going on. Hypos don't normally have me feeling like I am gonna throw up and I'm worried I'm gonna go high later.
