[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 588989, member: 12578"] Re DAFNE, What level were they giving for hypo? It was 3.5mmol/l , this is of course lower than many use (my doc uses 3.5mmol/l as well) Couldn't in a quick search find any mention of changes, did find this interesting study from DAFNE about the problems of severe hypos/ unawareness from a relatives point of view. It makes quite sobering reading . [url]http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/37/1/109.full[/url] Reducing hypos to as few as possible is I assume the best way to try to avoid unawareness. It could be thought that saying that a couple of hypos a week is fine gives a slightly wrong message. (and no I don't manage none either, I did when I stopped exercising for a while but I cannot get rid of them entirely during exercise; though I often don't test now, just take the glucose tablet!)
