[QUOTE="Sanober, post: 253738, member: 33171"] Hi I'm been battling with my Pancreas the last fortnight now as my glucose levels were hitting 12 - 18, despite not changing a thing in my routine. I've now nearly got the right basal/bolus balance, for now, basically an increase on both, surprise surprise. However things can still be unpredicatble and I sometimes need to second guess on the bolus so need to pare back the dosage a bit or use correctional dosages (not allowed on DAFNE yet). I'm wondering about feeling very symptomatic at certain levels. Levels of about 9/10 I feel tired, hot and irritable. At 12/13 I feel nauseous and dizzy and it affects my ability to work. I find it hard to focus my eyes on something and follow instructions. People often comment when I'm rubbing my forehead and ask if I'm ok as I tend to start rubbing my forehead with my fingers. Is this a typical thing for Diabetics? To feel this strange sensation in their forehead? I feel thirsty/need to pee more. Today I felt particularly bad and a work colleague who asked if I was ok at the time told me later she was very worried for me. She said I looked really pale and was moving around things on my desk very slowly, and then for unexplained reasons I got up and walked away....(I remember thinking I had to put some rubbish in the bin and get away from this person who just kept talking and I was concious I couldn't really talk much). I tested and then took a correctional dose and what a difference in 15mins! I felt so energetic and productive again. My work mates were surprised at the change in my personality. Are these unusual symptoms? [/QUOTE]
