[QUOTE="avi, post: 125584, member: 16456"] Hi Last night I had my first bad hypo, I have had hypos before but nothing like this. I was going to bed so tested my BG which were 8.9 and took my background insulin, let the dog out for a wee and went upstairs. Within half an hour I knew somethng was wrong managed to get myself back downstairs tested again and they were 1.5 within that half hour they had crashed. I drank a carton of orange juice and then scoffed a terrys chocolate orange which I don't remember doing and managed back upstairs and sat crying on the bed where my husband found me, I really don't know how I was still functioning at this level, I think hubby was ready to whip the glucogen kit out. I feel absolutley rubbish this morning, no wonder though BG was 20.2 on rising, and am going back to bed when I get my daughter off to school. What I don't understand though is how my BG could drop so rapidly, it really scared the hell out of me. At least I have an excuse of the chocolate orange disappearing ha! Avi [/QUOTE]
