Hi . Should I purchase a libra item (with alert)? If so Which?
As listed Im type 2 with 1 x insulin in a.m . Im having problems with readings dropping, mostly at night. Occasionally a hypo by day.
Around 12 - 3 a.m (bathroom visit time) I test. Often theres a drop of 40% to 50% from bedtime reading . If that is 8 or below I dont know what to do. My thoughts are ''will the reading drop another 20% - 40% to a hypo b4 6.30a.m wake up'' SO I tend to take a jelly baby or slurp of Appletise. Readings on waking are variable but never below 4, today was 4.9 with a jelly baby at 2 am. Im thinking of buying an alert system then my doctors or Team might take notice . ANY input welcome and from from type 2 plus insulin in particular.
