Message: <blockquote data-quote="plantae" data-source="post: 2583852" data-attributes="member: 565464">Thanks.Yes, now you mention it I do recall now my diabetes educator wanting me to run my levels higher a few weeks ago anyway (I may have mentioned this is another thread) to improve my hypo-awareness which you may as well say is currently non-existent. This is perhaps the very reason why the hospital is happy with the sevens -- it didn't occur to me at the time to ask. My hypo-awareness might be starting to develop already actually because yesterday I felt drunk and gave somebody my own phone number incorrectly three times but I was aware of it (so I checked my BSL; I wasn't hypo but I was below 5). A few weeks ago I very much doubt I would have noticed feeling any different at all; I didn't feel different in the 3s! I really did feel drunk yesterday. So, in the long run this is probably a good thing.Edit: Before this week I was relying on my Libre alarms and I think they adjusted the thresholds in hospital. Low is set to go off at 4.4, I'm not sure what it was set to before... I think it was lower than 4.4 low. The alarms aren't going off all night now, though, because my fasting is higher so I'm sleeping better as well <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
