Hey,
I've been diagnosed coming up to a year in April, and I have a twin sister who was diagnosed about 6 months before I was. When I was diagnosed, she had already got the hang of everything. She has always been very smart and likes to follow rules exactly, without varying. Anyway, I get hypos like she does, but I sometimes feel bad for a few hours afterwards as I always get a bad headache and feel tired and just generally unwell. This mainly happens if it is a bad one, as I am usually fine after a few minutes otherwise. If I am at school when this happens, sometimes I will go home, and they understand, and usually if it happens in the morning I will be alright again for the afternoon. But my sister doesn't believe it is right, even if I miss one lesson for it. Does anyone else feel like this when they have one? I don't generally take days off sick anyway.
(BTW, I am talking bad, like levels at 1.0-3.0)
