[QUOTE="smidge, post: 361826, member: 29301"] Hi Diamond! As others have said, those levels are too low even if you don't feel ill. Unlike some of the other guys, I don't jump too quickly to correct minor hypos, because I know when I'm in danger of them falling lower and when I'm not, but as soon as they dip under the 3.2 - 3.5 mark, I don't hang about. You need to reduce your insulin to keep your BG at safe levels. Incidentally, you will lose your driving license if you have lost your hypo awareness. You don't need to have had a bad hypo where intervention is required - loss of hypo awareness = loss of driving license. If you don't tell the DVLA, your diabetes team will and you will lose your license. Get those levels up higher and regain your awareness. Smidge [/QUOTE]
