Message: <blockquote data-quote="enzina" data-source="post: 2674683" data-attributes="member: 3870">I have spent the whole morning trying to get out of a massive hypo after i had injected 18 units of Lantus. Waking levels at 6am were 4.2 and after 30 minutes of being up i took the Lantus. Ten minutes later I was just picking up something from the floor when i noticed i'm feeling dizzy and can hardly see. Libre 2 showed 3.5 but finger pricking showed 1.9. It took me nearly two hours to bring the levels back up to normal although i was taking in incredible amounts of sugar and also ate bread and fruits. Two weeks ago i got a steroid injection in my elbow. For the next two days afterwards i was running low, then very high and needed more insulin. Only since yesterday i thought everything is back to normal. At the moment i'm feeling very weak, are walking like drunk and fingers and toes are cramping. Never had a hypo like that before. Could it be the Lantus?</blockquote>
