Hello to gbtyke
Thanks for that info, I had in 2008 about 4 Hypo/Coma standing up?
A Hypo is when you drop below the accepted level of 4 mmol/l. You can have a hypoglycaemic episode whilst walking/standing/sitting/sleeping whatever. I can sometimes hypo whilst out walking, I just treat the symptoms there and then.
NOT very nice, at around 5.1 mmol But was told by a Prof can't happen?
question the Meter, same with another meter? I was on a nasty analog Insulin Mix.
also I have walked away from a 1.7 Hypo, Yet been very very ill with a 3.6 mmol.
The Professor was quite right. 5.1 mmol/l is not a hypo. You are lucky that you safely walked away from a level of 1.7mmol/l, for a type 1 that could have quickly been a major problem, resulting in unconciousness and a Diabetic Coma, then who knows........ Did you have any warning that you were going that low.
NOW: Here is a Question for the one's who like to argue.
"WHO" has had Phantom Hypo's all the symtoms and some extra But test Reads 10.3 mmol
just as a figure, All this just before a meal time?
Answer's on a Post Card...........................
