[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2498793, member: 372717"] Well, I hope he also gave you a prescription for blood ketone strips, because they are [I]a lot[/I] more expensive than urine ones. I slightly disagree here. If you're feeling hypo symptoms and the sensor says you are really low, I'd knock back a couple of glucose tablets before using my glucometer to see how much more I needed.... But I have had a my bgs go into the 20s when my dexcom told me I was repeatedly low during an evening, so I kept treating, though I wasn't low at all. If I'm having a bad hypo I use my glucometer to tell me when to stop panicking because the delay in interstitial readings means I seem to be going down for longer than I am... [/QUOTE]
