[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1579784, member: 41816"] Apologies [USER=327005]@CherryAA[/USER] I have only just seen that you had responded to my earlier post. My point for including the two references in my post was simple - you had referred to hypos in type 2 diabetics as being 'more in their minds than real'. Those links demonstrated that other people have hypos too. Having Type 2 diabetes is no protection from other hypo causes and people can simultaneously have Type 2 and Reactive Hypoglycaemia or other hypo causing medical conditions. I am sure that those of us who have experienced real hypos would not appreciate having the experiences dismissed as imaginary. Perhaps in future you could distinguish between false hypos (to which I think you were referring), and actual hypos where blood glucose drops so low it affects us mentally and physically? The only way to determine whether a hypo is real or false is to use a meter. My own hypo experiences went on for years with no medical professional taking me seriously and no method to prove they were hypos. Happily my meter and my Libre have provided me with this proof. As you can imagine, I find it disappointing to find people on this forum taking a similarly dismissive attitude. [/QUOTE]
