[QUOTE="Erin, post: 2030825, member: 33777"] Hi everyone, I hope you are under blood sugar control. I am now at 10 insulin. I asked my dr. to lower to 12, as I have a weakness for hypos. And hypos are devastating for me, as I get heart or chest pain? One dr. said I had left ventricular failure, a recent diabetic nurse, cleared with the cardiogram as OK. So, this is my question to you fellow diabetics: I am trying to become conscious or sensory of the oncoming hypo-- which does feel like weakness and cardiac; and I soon eat; sometimes I overeat, but even a high 11 is not as devastating. Diabetes is complicated. I have read some articles on PubMed, and yes the relationship between cardiac failure and hypos is common. Exactly what goes on I am not sure, possibly lack of blood or oxygen. My aim is to become physically aware of when a hypo coming and when a hyper is there, without using a gazillion of test strips.
