[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 937935, member: 102150"] To get hypo awareness back your BG just needs to remain in the normal, non-hypoglycemic range. Can be for as little as 2 weeks and you will get awareness back. Your BG does not need to be hyperglycemic. That sounds like an unhealthy way to get hypo awareness back. I would guess the reason you got hypos on your normal Basal 1 pattern after you came back from holiday is that during the 2 week holiday you adapted to a lower level of activity (and lowered your basal). When you resumed your normal level of activity you were not as used to it, it was more strenuous, and hence the hypos. That's what I find anyway whenever I increase my activity level, I get hypos, at least until I have re-adjusted to the higher activity level. I suppose a key issue is what caused you to lose hypo awareness. But even more important than that is getting hypo awareness back. [/QUOTE]
