If you're very high at some points and in the normal range when you get shaky.... I used to get hypo symptoms when I was a perfectly good 5.5, my body was just accustomed to being 18,5 and such, so it freaked out on me when it started seeing numbers in the normal range. It had to get used to being relatively low. (And making a very tenuous connection: a body can't freak out if it's mellow, I suppose....?) If your numbers vary wildly throughout the day, that could be the problem right there. Steep drops can make you feel downright awful. I don't know if you carb count for your insulin, (if you're on a steady dose this won't work, you'd hypo), but I really do think low carb/high fat eating could help. If you have fewer up and down swings, which LCHF would accomplish, and a more even keel...That would help even if it is double diabetes (T1 plus insulin resistance). I'm just guessing though. Just seems semi-logical to me, but I'm a T2 and I've been told I talk out of my *** sometimes, especially when it comes to T1's. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /> <a href="https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/the-nutritional-thingy.2330/" target="_blank">https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/the-nutritional-thingy.2330/</a> check this, so you know what kind of diet I'm talking about, and maybe discuss it with your doc/specialist. Because you shouldn't have to deal with this on your own.</blockquote>
