[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2282693, member: 451727"] Hi JMK, I absolutely agree. When we have hypos during the day we have to act rapidly and aggressively but at least we may feel it in advance and be able to act. When we are asleep we cannot rely on ourselves immediately waking up to rectify it, if we go low it is effectively a drug overdose (insulin or glucose lowering drug) so does someone who has overdosed rely on their metabolism to kick in and save the day? Nope. I personally feel that implying this is dangerous especially to newbies or those not yet fully conversant with how it all works. x [/QUOTE]
