[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2361618, member: 365308"] I agree with all those posting about the feeling of being hypo without being hypo. For example being physiologically used to a higher bg level then having a lower but normal level ( i.e. above 4 where the brain is getting adequate glucose) . From type 1 experience this happens for that reason but also when there is a rapid transition from high to lower (a vertical arrow drop for those of us using fsl) that engenders a symptom. IF you're type 1, type 2 on meal time boluses or have RH it is more likely that you will have this kind of dramatic drop caused by excess insulin. The other situation I can get symptoms is when anxious either about my blood sugars or something else. Then I get surprised to find that adrenalin has caused similar feelings to the hypo possibly because if your brain was actually running out of sugar it would also give you a surge of adrenalin to kick start you into finding something to eat asap.- [/QUOTE]
