I finished my DAFNE course today which was great, learned a lot. My question though concerns hypo's, or lack off. I found it most odd that others on the course swung from very high BG levels to below 4's within a few hours or so. I have had T1 for about a year now and have never had a hypo ! I dipped below 4 once ( 3.8 I think ) but felt fine. I very rarely go high and never go low. We had a lesson on alcohol and the nurses said this often leads to a big drop in BG levels but I drink regularly and again, this has never happened to me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining but I just wondered if anyone else is the same boat or can explain this ? Every day we had to go through our individual readings and mine were just flat, boring even. The docs don't think I'm in honeymoon period as I am very stable taking 1 unit per 10g of carbs. I feel like a diabetic fraud lol ! Some days I even wish I would have a little hypo, just to see what it feels like ! Crazy eh !
