[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2611372, member: 372207"] If your body is used to high blood glucose, lowering it can definitely feel like being hypo, it's called a false hypo. Your body will get used to normal levels again. Every scary thing you read about hypos is aimed at T1's or T2's on much stronger medication or insulin, going hypo is not normally a risk in T2 because hypos are caused by medicatin, not by diabetes itself. When you feel hypo to see what's going on! And also before a meal and some 2 hours later to see how that meal affected you. If you find you are more than about 2 mmol/l higher than before the meal you might want to consider having less carbs for that meal next time.
