[QUOTE="Pamzy2, post: 371983, member: 54689"] Hello, yes, I too have experienced these "near hypo's". I was diagnosed with Type 2 last November, and also believed that I couldn't suffer a hypo as I am only diet-controlled, no medication. However, I have felt "odd" and "wobbly" at times and taken my blood sugar level to find it is 4.2 or 4.3, as soon as I eat something it corrects itself and I feel better again, so I would definitely say that Type 2, without medications can suffer from hypos - although this may not be what the medics say! I don't drink very often anymore and the one time I did have around 2 glasses of wine, the next morning my blood sugar level dropped to 4.3, and I knew it was low before I tested as I felt very tired and wobbly. I avoid alcohol at all cost, but on the odd occasion I "have to" at a celebration or dinner, then I make sure I eat something before I go to bed, and again as soon as I get up. Hope this helps, and good luck! [/QUOTE]
