Having experienced a hypo with Levemir this morning, I wondered whether I was alone in experiencing a subtly different and more intense set of hypo symptoms with a new insulin? Is it potentially a feasible option when a T1 starts to lose Hypo awareness that their insulins are changed? Could an annual or two yearly change over to different brands of insulin be used to help maintain hypo awareness?

What are others experiences of this? Is it a feasible idea?
