Hi guys, although I am remaining positive about my diabetes, today is an especially difficult day. I had just under 4 hours sleep last night due to the fact I had a night hypo. I look and feel terrible today and have red baggy eyes. I really don't look good today for my job and can't get motivated. The thing is sometimes I don't have the night time hypos even when I don't feel like a snack at night sometimes, but other times I don't snack because I don't feel like it (like last night) and I end up going low. My BG was 7.6mmol at 11pm way after my insulin was supposed to have stopped working, but when I look my night insulin... although I was shattered, when I went to bed, I couldn't sleep for about an hour. I don't feel hypos so much at night now (which is also a worry) but couldn't figure out why I was sooooo tired and exhausted and couldn't sleep. I decided on the off chance to test my BG as sometimes before I have been low. Sure enough it was 3.4 mmol and I got up drank lucozade, brushed teeth, waited, tested BG, attempted sleep. I eventually dropped off but awoke at 6am with high BG. It's times like this my diabetes really gets to me :evil: All I want to do is go to bed and sleep and I feel a bit down because of last night. Has anybody figured out the cure of night time hypos without having to force a snack down their necks :?: See I thought, I'll just adjust my evening dose but then my BG is high the next morning. I feel like I'm in a no win situation today and fed up.... maybe someone could shed some light :roll: I am still trying to be positive but today it is very difficult and practically unachievable.
