Hypo and aggression???

Nope. It's the blood sugar levels that need to be constantly monitored with blood testing.
The insulin dose is adjusted in the case of a T1 to keep sugar levels at a healthy parameter & avoid the inevitable complications associated with prolonged high BG.
Insulin is calculated in a balancing act involving carb intake to insulin ratio & forecasting exercise ,physical exertion or the respective lack of....
One can also include climate change & insulin integrity too..
Because unfortunately, though we might be able to think like a pancreas. We can't act as fast as one.

In terms of the "man is a machine"..? If the blood sugars swing either way.. For instance regarding this topic a hypoglycaemic episode..
It's safe to put this down in short to "driver error".!

Of course it is blood glucose that you monitor. I was saying that to try and understand where a possible glucose and thus energy supply can come from in a hypo, glycogen inside the cells can be considered.

If you only pick up the matter at "blood sugars swing either way" t;hen you view the matter late. There has to be a reason for it to swing to begin with and that reason is important in understanding why the hypo or hyper have arisen. Driver error does not help. It only cuts the picture short and it is important to see the bigger picture.

The second link you gave about the voodoo dolls was one of the papers. I wrote to Dr Brad Bushman, one of the authors and he sent me a copy of two of his papers but I can't find them on the net. This is the site that made me write because it makes it sound like diabetics are a menace to society and I felt outraged by it. Diabetics have enough bad press they don't deserve without this stuff.

The psychiatrist link you gave doesn't actually talk about diabetics but really people who are criminals. Also she is really talking on the very upper limit of what might be called a hypo. It depends on what you consider the bottom of the normal range (ie the top of the hypo reading). I guess strictly speaking anything below what is normal is a hypo but my understanding from what was written was well below this.

I certainly see your perspective of this "car crash" quite clearly. Even if your witness statement on the "claim form" takes a fair bit of reading..

Witness statement.. but you got to look a bit harder.
