[QUOTE="HarleyRH, post: 1682815, member: 468363"] Yes I only feed via a feeding tube and I’m prescribed feed, I’ve managed to get quite a good one made up of MCT and other nutrients. My feed is peptide based due to my inability to digest whole nutrition properly. I was told that my hypoglycaemia is reactive by my GI, I have not had any tests for reactive hypoglycaemia though. I’m fasted during the day and I’ve had readings of below 3 during the day too and between more than one make of monitor, I guess my sugars are semi stable, just not in the right place. The lowest reading I have had during the day was 0.9 but I assumed it was an error as when I retested it just said “lo”? That was on an accucheck mobile. I didn’t test the other night when it was in the 2s as I was asleep, I didn’t wake up until it was a bit higher (it does go up on its own too, just not by very much) Yes I can drink liquids :) At what point does low sugar absolutely need to be corrected? At what point would you visit hospital if you couldn’t bring it up on your own? Thanks x [/QUOTE]
