[QUOTE="Member496333, post: 2118433"] I recall when I had my first (and only) "hypo" at 4.4mmol/L. Now a perfectly normal number, but at the time it was extreme hypoglycaemia for my body. I have never felt so cold and horrifically ill. Right to my core. I was so confused it was like I had lost all cognitive function. With the help of someone else, I managed to 'treat' it but swung back to 13+ very quickly and honestly I felt so bad that dying would probably have been easier. I did not know it was possible for a human to feel so dreadful. Wouldn't wish it on an enemy :hungover: So yeah, false hypos are not false when you experience them, is my point. Be careful out there folks :nurse: [/QUOTE]
