[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 112164, member: 12578"] Hana, I agree! Having lived most of my life without diabetes there were lots of times when I had the same symptoms as a mild insulin induced hypo. Non diabetic OH often comes in from some hard manual work like chopping wood shaking and in desperate need of something to eat, I tested him once and he was in the 3s. BUT I think this similarity to pre diagnosis feelings led me to trivialise my own insulin + exercise induced hypos with This was silly and potentially dangerous and lead to decreased hypo awareness for a while. As many people are on medication of some sort so I think one has to be careful to make it clear that hypos caused by too much insulin/hypoglycaemic medication need to be treated appropriately. edit to correct newly invented word!
