[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1394446, member: 94045"] How many hypo levels have you had since starting low carb? How low have you been, and how do you feel at this time? If it is regular and you made sure your nurse knew all the details, I think she is being a bit short sighted. What I would do is test before you go to bed. If you are going too low, eat a biscuit or three to raise your levels. What you don't want to do is go to bed low.. I'm not sure eating fruit at lunch time is going to help with evening and night time lows. I would just stick to normal personally, but test, test, test to check those levels are not hypo. (generally under 4) If they are, eat something to raise them. If it keeps happening you need to go back to the surgery and see again about reducing the medication. I've had another think about this and think you should ring the nurse or even the GP sooner rather than later, and discuss matters further. Hypos are not good. [/QUOTE]
