[QUOTE="fletchweb, post: 1431325, member: 318202"] That seems like a lot - with me I may hit the low 3s 2 - 3 times per month at most, but it's usually associated with unplanned physical activity. If your hypos happen at around the same time of day and you're awake - you may want to try a snack of some kind 30 mins before those times you're low - that's assuming you have been able to spot a trend on when you get low BGs. Secondly - and this took me years - try not to over compensate if you're treating a hypo. I remember when I was younger I'd test in the high 2s - feel absolutely terrible and then over compensate with what I was eating resulting in a BG level of 20 an hour later - making me feel even worse - that doesn't happen anymore but it's easy to do and it happens to a lot of us. .
