My levels have been around the 5.5 - 7.0 range for the last few weeks so cant understand why this happened.  Now my practice nusrse says its impossible for a type 2 on diet/exercise to have a hypo, well my meter says different.  Ok it maybe not like a hypo those on insulin may have BUT scared me just the same.Brian</blockquote>
