[QUOTE="evilclive, post: 2060290, member: 488171"] I've seen 1.something on a fingerprick before. 2.2 is pretty low, but you're still conscious. Eat something, bring yourself back up (but don't overcorrect!), and bed will welcome you. (think about why it went low - if it's just a bit too much insulin for a bit too little food or too much exercise, bringing yourself up then leaving it will be ok. If you've injected a lot too much insulin eg novorapid rather than lantus or an extra lantus dose, you'll need to keep an eye on things for longer, which probably means checking every hour till you're sure it's sorted. But it'll probably be the first type). [/QUOTE]
