[QUOTE="azure, post: 1000870, member: 39639"] Yes, we're all different and as the PP says you'll find what works for you :) I'd have had some Lucozade (I find glucose tablets too much before a nice meal whereas liquid glucose slips down easier and works quicker). That would have got me up from that low very quickly. If I was about to eat something with a low GI or was out or at a big meal where I'd be eating more slowly (eg talking to friends and family) I'd have considered delaying my bolus injection so that I had a chance to get some food onboard before the insulin kicked in. That is, I'd have started eating before having my bolus. Of course, the concern here is that you might forget the bolus entirely! So I usually put something on the table to remind me or set an alarm on my phone. [/QUOTE]
