[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1627124, member: 30007"] A couple of questions. When you say low, what does that mean? Does it mean that you are dropping to 3.5 to 4, or does it mean you are dropping below 3 and it is incapacitating you? There's quite a big difference between the two, and it's not clear from your post [USER=416946]@Fatima_94[/USER] which you are talking about. Being frank, if it's the latter, and you are dropping below 3 daily or more than daily, then I think you probably need some help as you are heading into significant risk of losing hypo awareness (which you don't really want, as [USER=32394]@catapillar[/USER] will tell you). You also haven't mentioned whether you've participated in the various training courses that are available to help T1s better manage their condition, getting various levels set correctly and understanding carb counting and ratios. If you haven't that's something else that may well make life easier for you. [/QUOTE]
