Back in May I had a very low BG reading after a long night shift. It read 1.9 mmol/l. The strange thing is I felt perfectly okay and in no way was I feeling any of the symptoms of a hypo. I rang NHS direct, who were fantastic and having followed their advice I was back to a near normal (for me) 7 something reading within 2 hours. My doctor says that it was probably a one off, possibly something hormonal etc.
Fast forward 2 months and its happened again. 2 different meters showed me a reading of 1.2 mmol/l. Again NHS direct were brilliant and within 2 hours I was back up to an 8.8 mmol/l reading. Now I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this ? NHS direct have referred me to my doctor who will no doubt have an opinion on this but I welcome independent advice
