I'd heard that having a hot bath can sometimes decrease blood glucose quite rapidly, but had never believed it... until last night. At 10.12 my reading was 6.7, and I knew it was on the way down and probably should have had something to eat, but instead I decided to have a quick bath. Whilst in the tub I started to feel a little bit panicky, and eventually very irritable - to the point of feeling enraged at the dripping tap. I realized I was having a baaaaad hypo, so got out (carefully) and took a reading: it was 2.2! So in just under an hour my BS had gone from an OK reading to my second lowest reading ever... scary. Anyone else had a similar experience?
