[QUOTE="zand, post: 1011515, member: 85197"] I think there can be confusion between a true hypo ( induced by too much insulin having been administered) and a false hypo such as some T2s get when they are reducing carbs. The first one is dangerous, the second usually isn't (although you really can't generalise as individuals vary a lot and there's always exceptions to the rule) As a T2 with insulin resistance and not on medication I have never had a true hypo. I have however felt weak, blurry eyed, dizzy when I haven't eaten. I would then eat a normal meal as it's just my body's way of telling me I need food. I wouldn't 'treat' it by having sugar because as [USER=85785]@nosher8355[/USER] says it would be unnecessary and just cause me more BG fluctuations. [/QUOTE]
