Many low blood sugars

Hi all
I have had type 1 for 41 year and recently received the sensor to assist monitoring and reducing blood sugar readings.
My problem is that I now seem to have many low blood sugar readings so having to have lucozade and other high sugar food to increase the levels.
Does this high sugar intake with low readings mean I may be at even higher risk of complications?
Thanks for any help

Have you checked blood glucose ... I have problems with flash glucose monitor indicating low readings when blood glucose is actually in target range. I'd check blood glucose when treating a hypo ...
 
I get hypo readings on my Librafree sensor during the night. After some Googling, it seems that the problem is that when I sleep on the arm with sensor attached, the readings are badly off.

What times of day are your hypo readings? Are you experiencing hypo symptoms?
