Low Bg Warning Signs Gone

After DAFNE (middle last year) my low BG warning signs got minimal (2.8 with no main symptoms) because my nervous system got used to well-controlled BGs, and now I'm in anxiety about it (i.e. on meds). Irony is the stress is causing high BGs.

Anyone else had this problem?

I'm thinking I'l have to go back to pre-DAFNE control to restore the alarm, or at least some of it. It's not as if I deliberately try to keep things tight, it was just that DAFNE works.
 
Running higher for a few weeks might help restore the signs.
 
I had similar problems a few years ago and during and after pregnancies. After aiming (not always successfully) at bg levels of about 7-9 mmol/l for around three weeks I had extreme hypo symptoms again (at levels of around 4mmol/l !).
Good luck!
