[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2678561, member: 85785"] First glance, you are not diabetic 5.3 is in normal levels. Next, no 30 minutes reading? Next the 10 around one and a half hours. I would think that might be after the peak, the tip of the spike is usually before this. Mine is usually 40-50 minutes. Yours may be a bit later. But don't believe so. If you know, it's not that late, you would know what I'm hinting at. It would be a higher level, possibly abnormal, similar to mine. If I remember my spike was around 13mmols on the hour. Next the lows that are not quite hypos. Depending on the accuracy of the glucometer, it still could have been lower that the 3.5(ish) for both. The hypo symptoms are hopefully noted. And it is understandable that you had them from the drop of BG levels to that low. I would are that, if you didn't eat straight after the last readings, it would be interesting wether you went lower or your BG recovered natrually. Overall I do see your results as not hugely abnormal, but that is my opinion and my experience from my tests. Wether it is RH, it could be many conditions. I'm not allowed to say, but it is only the first test in a number that are needed for diagnosis. But it's worth a follow up. If you get a very quick hyper, depending on your own individual metabolism, above a certain level, you get those symptoms which may include drowsiness, similar to the sudden drop in levels, referred to as a sugar crash. And some feel drowsy, were you hot during the test? I know I was. Do keep us updated. Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
