The best treatment for me is to use something called very berry gluco juice exactly 15 grams of carb and works very quickly. I found taking just that works a treat.... after about 5 mins brings me out of hypo then I eat a couple of biscuits. Used to treat hypo with a bit if lucozade then immediately a biscuit but 15 mins later was still showing hypo so would re treat... Then became far too high! Found it better to only take the lucozade (now very berry gluco juice) and wait for levels to rise before having a small snack -  if still hypo after about 10 mins I take a further hypo treatment but wait for a rise before having a starchy snack such as a biscuit. I now use a Libre freestyle and am always checking so can now see my where I am at and if on the verge if being too low just pop in a couple of gluco tabs. Works for me! Got the Libre and one sensor free from my DNS further sensors cost about £52 including postage but for me well worth the money. Hope you manage to get sorted [emoji18]</p></blockquote><p></p>
