I was in Italy recently and during a really hot day I suffered from severe sweating, dizzyness, complete lack of energy and unable to walk far. A 'wet rag' description comes to mind!! I have Type 2 treated with Metformin (2 per day) and have never suffered these symptoms before. Having said that I tend to holiday off season so dont experience really hot weather often.
Does anyone else have this problem? I received no information on how to deal with hot weather on diagnosis. Thanks
 
Hot weather or cold weather can affect your blood sugar levels, the same goes when exercising when your body has to work harder to keep you cool or warm it is also trying to maintain BS sometime you will need to make adjustments, by testing more often, eating more or less, it's a bit of trial and error to get it to your norm
