Lately I have sometimes felt quite hypo but when I've tested I've been say 12 or something like that. Been convinced I'm hypo but am not.
Type 1 for 40 years.

I have had this happen. Think its because theres not enough insulin in you to feed you to get your blood levels down, usually makes me feel quite hungry.

Me too. I get the shaky hypo feeling when it's high, and my hypos are always coming up with new weird symptoms. Sometimes they make me feel mega thirsty like a hyper. When I had carpal tunnel it worked as an early warning system -my hand went numb when my BG dropped below 5.
 
So glad I'm not the only one that feels like this at times.
This morning for instance I was feeling as if I was going low, even had a shaky finger when testing it, and it was 8....bizarre. I wonder if the muggy heat has anything to do with it along with the thundery weather coming up. It seems to happen to me more if I feel hot or in need of some fresh air.

I must admit I dont seem to have such good hypo warnings these days either. Thanks everyone, not just me feeling hypo being high!
