[QUOTE="woollygal, post: 2139750, member: 489059"] Are you newly diagnosed? If so it can take a while for your body to acclimatise to lower sugars. When I first got diagnosed if I hit anything below 10 I thought I was dying and having a hypo. Took a while but now I’m even pretty much coping on 4s. Not perfectly but I’m Not teaching immediately for something to eat. You have to remember on here that a lot of people have been doing this a long time. They can get perfect t numbers and stay at those. When I first joined it was overwhelming to hear people say that’s too high you have to be in 5/6. It felt impossible and like I’d never achieve it. It took a few months but I got there. Just remember it is a journey. Strangely now if I go above 8 I can’t stand it either. Woke up 9.7 this morning and my tongue is all tingly and weird (gone down to 7.9) but tongue still off and I feel bit icky. Don’t worry, you will start to see lovely numbers but it does take a while. Perfection gets stayed on here but it isn’t instant. What they don’t tell you is how pong it took them to get there. [/QUOTE]
