[QUOTE="therower, post: 2172517, member: 47983"] [USER=513051]@KesLouise[/USER] . Best thing for hypos is glucose whether it be glucotabs, jelly babies, orange juice etc. Follow this up with some complex carbs to stop you dropping low again in an hour or so. BUT all this is fire fighting if it’s happening on a regular basis. You need to find the cause of the fire or in your case the reason why you’re going low regularly. Re assess your insulin dosage ( I assume you’re on insulin ) Have you changed your eating habits? Small changes can have huge impacts on BS levels. Have you had a lifestyle change ? More exercise, a change at work, socialising more ? Avoiding the amount of hypos you have isn’t easy at times but is better than continually treating them. Good luck and I hope the 1.9 hasn’t made you feel too bad. [/QUOTE]
